Delhi's Old Rao Tula Ram Flyover Reopens for Light Vehicles After Repairs
The Old Rao Tula Ram (RTR) flyover in Delhi, closed on October 20 due to cracks detected on its carriageway, is set to reopen for light vehicles including cars and two-wheelers from Monday evening. Repair work and safety inspections have been completed, but heavy vehicles will remain restricted pending a structural audit. The closure caused significant traffic congestion as vehicles were diverted to service roads. Authorities will monitor the flyover's performance before allowing full traffic flow.
