Friday, September 11, 2026, brings BRICS security in Delhi and busier trains, not closures. Delhi Metro services are running their regular timetable, while roads face phased diversions near Bharat Mandapam and central corridors. Travellers should prefer Metro, add buffer time, and expect more screening at sensitive stations. The Delhi Metro Museum at Supreme Court station remains shut today.
Delhi Traffic Police has activated a three‑day plan from September 11 to 13 around Pragati Maidan. Expect rolling curbs, convoy halts, and 22 diversion points affecting 35‑plus roads across central and south Delhi. Authorities urge commuters to follow live advisories and avoid VVIP routes when possible. For predictable journeys, use the Metro over private vehicles during the summit window.
Delhi Metro today: BRICS‑day checks, gates and crowding
Security perimeters are tighter near Bharat Mandapam and Supreme Court, with more bag checks and occasional gate controls during motorcades. Interchange hubs such as Rajiv Chowk and Central Secretariat may see short surges; plan quick transfers and carry digital tickets. DMRC indicates services are available without disruption, so last‑train timings remain on the usual schedule today. Track updates before you start.
Delhi Metro today: Airport and route planning for IGI runs
For airport trips, the Airport Express Line remains the fastest and least variable option. Leave early, especially during evening movements when dignitary convoys are common. If central‑Delhi station gates look busy, enter from a quieter adjacent stop and interchange en route. Several advisories specifically recommend Metro for airport travel during the BRICS window. Keep a 20–30 minute buffer.
