Delhi's Ashram flyover's ongoing construction work is causing heavy traffic congestion around the area. The commuters on the route are facing massive disruption since both the carriageways of the Ashram flyover have been closed since January 1. The construction work is expected to connect the flyover with the DND flyway to provide a better commute for the citizens of the national capital region. Considering the ongoing disruption in traffic and to mitigate the heavy traffic on the stretch of Ring Road and Mathura Road due to the extension of the Ashram flyover, Delhi traffic police have issued a new advisory for commuters. 

Based on the advisory, the police department claimed to have identified the important sites and places for traffic diversion and to have installed a suitable number of traffic signals and signage. Furthermore, 70 traffic police personnel and 16 PWD marshals have been deployed on the stretch to address the traffic on the route.
