Google Maps Mishap! Tempo Gets Stuck in Alkapuri Railway Underpass in Vadodara
October 16, 2026
Vadodara: A tempo got stuck inside the low-clearance underpass at Alkapuri railway subway in Vadodara, causing a major traffic jam and disrupting vehicular movement. Traffic police rushed to the spot and, with the help of a JCB machine, removed the vehicle from the underpass, allowing traffic to return to normal.
According to the available information, the tempo was travelling from Sayajigunj towards Alkapuri when it entered the underpass and became stuck. The driver was reportedly following Google Maps navigation but failed to correctly assess the height clearance of the underpass.
The stranded tempo blocked an entire lane of the underpass, leading to long queues of vehicles on both sides and causing inconvenience to commuters. Traffic and local police personnel reached the spot and arranged for a JCB machine to pull the vehicle out.
After the tempo was removed, traffic movement through the underpass was restored. DeshGujarat
