The work is scheduled between March 28 and March 30, with construction activities taking place at night from 10 pm to 6 am to minimise disruption during peak daytime traffic.

MCG officials said that due to heavy traffic and the proximity of the hospital, the affected portion of the road will be partially or fully closed during the work to ensure safety and timely completion of the project.

A detailed diversion plan has been prepared to maintain smooth traffic flow and ensure uninterrupted movement of ambulances and emergency vehicles to the hospital. Vehicles heading towards the Sector 10 government hospital via Basai Road will be guided through alternative routes during the construction period.

Executive engineer Pradeep Kumar has requested the Gurugram traffic police to deploy adequate personnel at key points to manage traffic effectively and minimise inconvenience to commuters.

The civic body has appealed to residents and commuters to cooperate with authorities, follow designated diversion routes, and plan their travel accordingly to avoid delays. Officials added that the temporary inconvenience will help facilitate improved road infrastructure in the area.
