GUWAHATI: Guwahati’s Lachit Nagar Main Road has recently become a hotspot for traffic congestion, primarily due to unregulated double parking.

What was once a relatively maneuverable road is now a source of frustration for commuters and residents alike, particularly the stretch sandwiched between two commercial buildings.
A few food and paan shops add to the mess.
“It is only recently that this road received a makeover, and with the drains covered it also grew in width, but the parking on both sides of the road has neutralised the benefit,” said a resident of the area while wishing for an early solution.
“This road connects GS Road to Rajgarh and many attempt to cut traffic time by navigating through this road, which leads to such excess congestion,” another resident said.
Addressing these issues promptly is essential for the authorities to restore order and accessibility on Lachit Nagar Road, thereby making it safer and more navigable for everyone.
