As part of the Kalapur Railway Station redevelopment , the Ahmedabad city police commissioner has announced the closure of a major road leading to Kalupur railway station for a period of three years, from September 11, 2024, to September 10, 2027. A 200-meter stretch of the road from Sarangpur Circle to the station will be affected. One side of the road will be closed to traffic, while the opposite lane will function as a one-way route.

To mitigate traffic disruptions, the commissioner has suggested three alternative routes:

  • From Sarangpur Circle to Kalupur Railway Station: Vehicles should proceed via Sindhi Bazar and Panchkuva, then take a right turn towards the station’s entry gate. Traffic will follow this route and continue via Motimahal Hotel Road.
  • From Kalupur to Sarangpur, Raypur, Kankariya, and Gita Mandir: Vehicles should use the one-way lane on the Kalupur-Sarangpur road.
  • Access to the Kalupur Railway Station: The old entry gate will remain open for passengers, while a new footbridge and a 30-foot road, part of the station’s redevelopment project by Dineshchandra R Agrawal Company, will facilitate passenger movement on the western side.

Motorists are advised to use these alternative routes and plan accordingly during this period
