Heavy rainfall on Wednesday significantly disrupted traffic in Delhi, affecting major routes and causing inconvenience to commuters.

The Outer Ring Road, particularly near Madhuban Chowk and Peeragarhi, experienced severe congestion due to potholes at the Mangolpuri Railway Bridge bottleneck, the city's police stated on X.

Traffic was also heavy on the Delhi-Meerut Expressway and around Mahipalpur, where commuters faced massive jams. In response, traffic police issued an advisory, announcing a two-week trial diversion of buses and trucks to avoid the Hanuman Setu, impacting traffic on Mahatma Gandhi Marg and the Outer Ring Road.
