A key road connecting Vadodara to the Ahmedabad-Vadodara Expressway will remain closed for two years for the construction of a ₹56-crore flyover, as per a notification by Vadodara City Police. The closure affects the stretch from Dumad Bridge to Amit Nagar Junction via the Abacus Traffic Circle.
Vehicles heading to or from the Expressway must take alternate routes, with roads closed from Dumad Bridge to Sama Canal Road and from Abacus Circle to Amit Nagar Bridge. The flyover will pass over the Abacus traffic island, which features a popular sculpture relocated from Akshar Chowk to Sama Lake in 2017.
