        \u2705 Advice for Commuters<\/h2>\n

        If you’re planning travel on 20 September 2025<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Monitor IRCTC \/ NTES<\/strong> starting mid-September for any block alerts.<\/li>\n
        • Avoid traveling between 11\u202fAM\u20134\u202fPM<\/strong> on Central\/HARBOUR routes if alternative options exist.<\/li>\n
        • Use Western Railway routes or alternate transport<\/strong> if slow-line locals are disrupted.<\/li>\n
        • Arrive early or use additional buffer time for delays or short diversions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
