New Year's eve traffic restrictions in CP

In order to make CP traffic free during the New Year, the traffic police will be preventing vehicles from entering Connaught Place on 31st December from 7:30 PM onwards. This will be valid for the inner circle, middle circle and outer circle. In essense, all the roads around CP will become traffic free. So, for example, people will not be allowed to cross under Minto Bridge, or allowed to take Janpath beyond the Ashoka Road - Ferozeshah Road Roundabout.
The only vehicles that will be allowed in will be the people living in that area or the ones going to attend a 5 star hotel party. But this will be allowed only after proper verification, so if somebody plans to go into CP in this duration, please do carry the necessary documents.
