Truck breakdown causes 5 km snarl on Gurgaon-Faridabad road

Gurgaon | Thursday | 2nd February, 2017

Summary:

For over two hours, a stretch of Gurgaon-Faridabad road , around 5km long, suffered from slow-moving traffic and frequent jams — the result of a breakdown of a truck during morning rush hour. Finally, the truck was moved from the road at around 9.30am, but by then, the road was already clogged. "Speed was affected and traffic movement was very slow due to heavy rush hour pressure, but traffic cops did their best to keep the vehicles moving. It improved after the truck which had broken down was removed from the road," said ACP Manish Sehgal. I was under the impression that it's a state holiday and thought there will be fewer vehicles on the road..
