Noida: Strict vehicle checks ahead of the celebration of independence day caused a long growl on the border of Delhi-noida on Friday.
The vehicle moves with a speed of snail at Noida-Greater Noida Expressway, DND and the Kalindi Künj route.
What was added to the problem was haphazard parking with trucks and other heavy vehicles, which were not allowed to enter Delhi until 2pm.

The traffic is very slow on the film route,” he said.
The PANKAJ reaches the village of ASID in Delhi around 10 in the morning.
It takes almost double the time to achieve its goals.
“Usually, I reached within 45 minutes,” he said.
Brajesh Sharma, another commuter between Delhi and Noida, questioned the way the vehicle was being examined.
“Trucks and other heavy vehicles march on the border in front of the Republican Day every year.
But on Friday, some trucks are parked in a horizontal way in the middle of the DND bridge and occupy most of the road.
Other vehicles are left with only two to three paths to negotiate And move forward, “he said.
Many commuters complained that Snarls lasted until around 1:00 p.m.
and extended to the Lajpat Nagar bridge.

Traffic almost crawled between DND Toll and Lajpat Nagar area,” said Ramesh Sharma, who worked in the public sector that did.
