Stuck in traffic on NH 8? Call this toll-free number

Keeping in view the traffic snarls on NH 8 owing to recently introduced route diversions, district authorities have come up with a toll-free helpline for commuters.

Hardeep Singh, DC Gurgaon, said, “Right from Rao Tula Ram Marg to Kherki Daula toll, if there’s any bottleneck, people can call at 8800092021. They will immediately be connected to the control room.”

Lakhs of people travel on NH 8 every day to reach their workplaces. Commuters travelling both from Delhi and Jaipur have been facing heavy traffic for some time now.

“A heavy-vehicle breakdown is almost a daily affair on NH 8. It leads to traffic jams that last hours,” said Sameer Setia, a daily commuter from Sector 47 to Green Park in Delhi.

The toll-free number also has ambulance and crane service.

However, commuters are sceptical.

Shalini Baweja, a resident of Sector 15 — and a daily commuter to Manesar — said, “I didn’t know about any such number. I will definitely try it, but I hope it works.”

The number works, claim officials. And sub-divisional magistrate of the north zone, Bharat Bhushan Gogia, will attest to that. He confirmed, “I had to avail the service recently. The personnel deployed at the control room reached the spot immediately.”
