No red lights, still red every evening: Why Akshardham-Noida road chokes daily

Traffic slows on the Akshardham-Noida corridor despite its design for quick movement. Small interruptions like vehicle stops and lane changes cause traffic to break. Commuter traffic, metro pickups, and buses compete for road edge space. This leads to delays, increased pollution, and dangerous driving conditions. Designated bays and stricter enforcement are suggested solutions for this recurring problem.
