During the upcoming Ganesh immersion and Milad-un-Nabi celebrations in Hyderabad, from Tuesday to Thursday, passengers traveling to and from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) should be mindful of possible disruptions in travel. The airport has issued a traffic advisory due to potential cab shortages and traffic congestion.
Travelers are encouraged to schedule their trips to the airport earlier than usual to avoid delays caused by traffic diversions and celebrations.
Key Points:
- Plan in Advance: Travelers are encouraged to schedule their trips to the airport earlier than usual to avoid delays caused by traffic diversions and celebrations.
- Traffic Congestion: Routes leading to the airport may experience heavy traffic, particularly during peak hours of the festivities. Travelers should check the current traffic situation and consider alternative routes if necessary.
- Cab Shortages: Due to the festivities, there may be limited availability of cabs. Booking in advance or using other modes of transport may help avoid inconvenience.
- Public Transport Alternatives: Consider using public transport services like the Pushpak airport bus or pre-booked car services as alternatives to regular cabs.
- Celebration Hotspots: Areas around Tank Bund, Hussain Sagar, and Charminar may be particularly affected due to the Ganesh immersion and Milad-un-Nabi processions, further contributing to traffic delays.
Travelers are urged to stay updated on traffic advisories, use traffic apps for real-time updates, and allocate extra travel time to avoid missing flights.
