Delhi Traffic Police Alert Commuters About 22 Diversion Points Ahead of BRICS Motor Parade Rehearsal
The Delhi Traffic Police has issued a comprehensive advisory to city residents and visitors as the capital prepares for the rehearsal of the motor carcade that will accompany the BRICS Summit 2026. According to the notice released on Tuesday, traffic will be rerouted at twenty‑two designated locations throughout New Delhi to accommodate the practice run of the official convoy.
Motorists are urged to follow the posted detour signs, check real‑time updates on the police’s traffic portal, and allow extra travel time, especially on routes that intersect the rehearsal corridor. Public transport operators have also been briefed, and additional shuttle services are expected to mitigate inconvenience for daily commuters.
The rehearsal is a pre‑summit exercise aimed at ensuring the smooth movement of dignitaries during the actual summit dates. While the event promises heightened international visibility for India, the temporary road adjustments underscore the practical impact such high‑profile gatherings can have on everyday urban mobility. For members of the South‑Asian diaspora planning visits or business trips to Delhi around the summit, staying informed about the diversion plan will be crucial to avoid delays.
The traffic police assures that all changes are temporary and will be lifted once the rehearsal concludes.
