  "account": "The Delhi Traffic Police have announced major traffic diversions today, September 1st, ahead of the BRICS motorcade rehearsals. Expect significant route changes between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM in high-security VVIP corridors across New Delhi. To cope with the heavy regulated traffic, the advisory advises commuters to plan their journeys ahead of time, allowing extra travel time, using public transport like the Metro, and following the diversion routes as instructed by traffic personnel.\n\nHigh-traffic central corridors, including Sardar Patel Marg, Mother Teresa Crescent, Mathura Road, Janpath, Ashoka Road, and Shanti Path, will be restricted or temporarily halted. Avoid key areas such as Mathura Road Access (restricted from Dr Dinesh Nandini Dalmia Chowk to the Lodhi Flyover and Oberoi Flyover), C-Hexagon & India Gate (vehicles restricted on Kasturba Gandhi Marg and Janpath towards C-Hexagon and Outer Circle of CP), Central Intersections (blocked movement at Mandi House towards Feroz Shah Road, Bhagwan Das Road, and Copernicus Marg), and South & Diplomatic Avenues (blocked traffic on Dhaula Kuan Flyover towards Sardar Patel Marg and Moti Bagh Flyover towards Shanti Path).\n\nFor airport and railway stations, consider taking the Delhi Metro as the primary mode of transport. If using the Metro is not possible, alternative routes include using NH-48 connecting to Rao Gajraj Singh Marg from Gurugram, Sector-22 to Dwarka Road for T3, Ring Road to AIIMS Chowk for New Delhi and South Delhi, ISBT Kashmiri Gate or Punjabi Bagh Chowk toward Raja Garden and Najafgarh Road from West, North & East Delhi. For railway stations, access via ISBT Kashmiri Gate and Ring Road, Ashram Chowk and Ring Road, or Vande Matram Marg towards the Rani Jhansi Flyover from New Delhi Railway Station. For Hazrat Nizamuddin Station, access through AIIMS and Ring Road towards Ashram Chowk, or via ISBT Kashmiri Gate to Ring Road. Emergency vehicles and essential services will receive priority, with commercial vehicles barred beyond Ram Charan Aggarwal Chowk (A-Point) towards W-Point. Roadside parking is strictly prohibited within 200 meters of controlled roads, and parking is only permitted in authorized facilities. Plan accordingly to minimize travel delays.",
