Bhopal-Indore Bus Route Changed To Ease Bairagarh Chaos

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The Transport Department has announced a route diversion for passenger buses travelling from Bhopal to Indore, in a bid to ease traffic chaos due to the ongoing construction of the double-decker elevated flyover.

The new route will bypass Bairagarh (Sant Hirdaram Nagar) and will instead pass through Halalpur, Lalghati, and Sehore.

The decision follows complaints raised by MLA Rameshwar Sharma and the Kapada Vyapari Sangh of Bairagarh regarding severe traffic jams caused by the flyover construction.

The elevated flyover, a Rs 221 crore project stretching over 3 kilometres from Laukhedi to Immersion Ghat, has led to heavy congestion in Bairagarh due to the construction of pillars along the road.

To alleviate the growing traffic issues in the area, Collector Kaushalendra Vikram Singh issued the order for diversion of passenger buses. As per the order, buses will now travel via Halalpur, Lalghati, and Sehore instead of passing through the heavily congested Bairagarh area.
