Traffic slows down after incessant rains

Deccan Chronicle  

HYDERABAD: The traffic movement on roads of the Hyderabad and Secunderabad has come to a standstill for the fourth consecutive day on Saturday due to partial road damage and overflowing floodwater caused by incessant rains. The traffic police had to use JCBs to clear the mud and restore vehicle movement on Uppal road. Rachakonda DCP Abhishek Mohanty stated that the police faced challenges managing traffic snarls in Uppal due to the ongoing corridor elevation works, but successfully cleared roads to ensure smooth flow of traffic in rain. Similar traffic snarls occurred on the Dilshuknagar-Chaitnayapuri stretch, where floodwater overflowed on the roads, prompting the traffic police to divert traffic with barricades.
