Hyderabad traffic restrictions remain in force around key routes as the city’s Ganesh immersion procession continues, with the Hyderabad City Traffic Police urging motorists to avoid Tank Bund unless travel through the area is necessary.
The traffic advisory was issued by the Hyderabad City Traffic Police on September 26 in view of the ongoing procession. Motorists were stopped at Tank Bund as Ganesh immersions continued, while diversions and restrictions remained active around several major roads and junctions.
The affected locations include Tank Bund, Necklace Road, NTR Marg, PV Statue and Indira Gandhi Rotary. The police have asked commuters to take note of the restrictions, follow official traffic updates and avoid travelling through the Tank Bund area unless required.
The advisory covers traffic movement around the city’s major immersion-related routes. Restrictions are being implemented as processions and vehicles associated with the immersion activity continue to use or approach roads around Hussain Sagar and adjoining public spaces. The police have not provided a general end time for the restrictions in the information available.
For commuters, the advisory means that regular routes through central Hyderabad and the roads surrounding Tank Bund may involve stoppages, diversions or slower movement. Motorists travelling towards Necklace Road, NTR Marg, PV Statue and Indira Gandhi Rotary have been advised to check the latest traffic instructions before starting their journey.
The Hyderabad City Traffic Police shared the advisory through its official X account and urged road users to cooperate with traffic personnel deployed in the affected areas. The department also asked commuters to follow official traffic advisories rather than attempting to use restricted routes.
The restrictions are linked to the ongoing Ganesh immersion procession and may change as movement on the roads develops. Commuters can monitor updates from Hyderabad Traffic Police before travelling and should avoid Tank Bund unless their journey requires access to the area.
