New Delhi: Traffic in many parts of the capital city returned to its normal pace on Friday afternoon after Chinese President Xi Jinping wound up his three-day official visit and left for home.

Traffic remained tied in knots in parts of the national capital for the second straight day on Friday due to the Chinese president's engagements in the city.

Like on Thursday, traffic crawled on several roads since morning as parts of New Delhi and central Delhi were made out-of-bounds for common commuters till 2 pm.

The helpline number of traffic police kept buzzing with complaints. "The complaint calls were coming from across the city as both the carriageways of several roads were stopped due to VVIP movements," said a traffic helpline operator.

Motorists who were coming towards NH-8 from Dwarka and Gurgaon and going to New Delhi faced traffic congestions on Rao Tula Ram Marg, Moti Bagh crossing, and Shanti Path. The situation was the same on the Ridge Road.

To facilitate safe and smooth movement of the VVIPs and their carcade, Sardar Patel Marg was also closed for intermittent periods.

Traffic returned to normal after Xi's departure.

What's your reaction?
