Heavy rains in Uttar Pradesh recently caused significant water accumulation on the Kanpur‑Lucknow Expressway, leading to traffic disruptions.
To mitigate the issue, state authorities deployed industrial fans along the affected stretch to accelerate the drying process.
The fans, positioned at strategic points, are expected to reduce water levels within a few hours, allowing traffic to resume normal flow.
Officials confirmed that the operation is part of a broader infrastructure maintenance plan aimed at ensuring road safety during the monsoon season.
