Truck movement on NH between Manguli and Pitapalli and vice versa is restricted

An order from the Commissionerate Police Bhubaneswar Cuttack today states that no goods carriers (6 or more wheeler trucks and trailers) will be allowed to ply on the following roads inside the city limits of Bhubaneswar and Cuttack, i.e. from Pitapalli towards Bhubaneswar and Manguli towards Cuttack from 5 PM to 7.30 PM, with effect from 5 PM on September 5, 2023, until further orders.

However, subject to obtaining an exemption certificate upon request from the office of the Commissioner of Police, Bhubaneswar-Cuttack, goods carriers engaged in essential and emergency duty shall be exempt from the scope of the order. The order will go into effect starting at 5 PM on September 5 and lasting until further order.

According to the order, the decision was made in light of the severe traffic congestion, particularly between 5 PM and 7 PM on the NH and SH from Cosmopolis Chhak in Bhubaneswar to Hanspal Chhak in Bhubaneswar and from Sikharpur Chhak in Cuttack to Madhupatna Chhak in Cuttack, which is causing the general public a lot of problems.

The limitation was put in place for the sake of convenience, traffic, and public safety.
