Traffic curbed neat Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium due to bowls championship

Traffic movement near Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium will be restricted from tomorrow for six days due to the national bowls championship being held here.
    
About 100 players from eight countries, including India, will participate in this event and elaborate arrangements have been made for parking and traffic circulation, pedestrians movement and control of the visitors for the event, a senior police official said.
    
Entry to the venue is not open to all, the official said adding, however, students from selected schools would be taken to the stadium to witness the games.
    
"There is likelihood of slowing down and congestion of traffic near the stadium and adjoining roads. Motorists are advised to cooperate and follow the directions of traffic police men posted there to avoid inconvenience," joint commissioner of police (Traffic) Satyendra Garg said.
    
The traffic circulation plan around the stadium will be one way  -- entry from Bhisham Pitamah Marg side and exit on Lala Lajpat Rai Marg.
    
Road side parking of any vehicle on the Jawaharlal Nehru Marg from BP Marg to Lala Lajpat Rai Marg and SCOPE Complex to SAI side road will not be allowed.

No heavy vehicle will be allowed on the Jawaharlal Nehru Marg.
        
Bowls is a sport in which the goal is to roll slightly asymmetric balls, called bowls, closest to a smaller-normally white-bowl called the 'jack' or 'kitty'.
