Where is the affected overbridge and what happened?
The overbridge is situated near the Shukrullapur Halt Station on the route connecting Delhi and Farrukhabad. Although the structure was completed only three years ago, it developed a technical issue that made it unsafe for vehicles. As a result, the local administration halted all traffic movement immediately.
How is traffic being diverted for commuters?
To manage the closure, police have installed barriers at the Haziyampur intersection to stop vehicles from entering the bridge. Commuters and drivers traveling toward Delhi and other cities are now being diverted via Nawabganj. This change in route is necessary until the technical fault is addressed.
