Traffic Diversions Announced in Parts of Ahmedabad on April 26 – 27

Ahmedabad: City police have announced traffic diversions in the Raipur area ahead of the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) elections to ensure the smooth movement of polling staff and electronic voting machines (EVMs) to and from designated dispatch and receiving centres.

The restrictions will be enforced during specified hours on April 25, and again on April 26–27 for post-poll operations. According to police, the measures are intended to ease congestion near the election facility and ensure seamless election-related logistics.

The election centre has been set up at Gujarat Shramyogi Kalyan Bhavan, located near the Shamji Krishna Varma Sports Complex. The facility will serve voters from Dariapur Ward 21, Khadia Ward 18, and Jamalpur Ward 19.
A one-way traffic system has been introduced from Raipur Crossroads to Gujarat Shramyogi Kalyan Bhavan, while the stretch between Raipur Crossroads and Kagadapith junction will remain closed to general traffic. Commuters have been advised to use alternate routes via Parsi Agiyari junction, Vanijya Bhavan Crossroads, Safal-III Circle, Kankaria Gate No. 3, Astodia, and Lal Darwaza, depending on their direction of travel.
