Several areas in Gurgaon witnessed traffic snarls and waterlogging on Monday after heavy rainfall. Subhash Chowk was among the affected areas. Vehicles moved slowly and many areas experienced waterlogging. Roads deteriorated further from earlier rains.

Gurgaon District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) advised corporate offices, government and private schools, and other institutions to direct employees and staff to work from home on August 25 to reduce traffic congestion and allow civic agencies to repair and maintain roads and drains.

Author-columnist Suhel Seth criticized the recurring monsoon flooding and traffic issues, citing them as recurring annual problems that deter investment. He attributed issues to rampant corruption in building licenses, lack of accountability, and drainage and sewage problems that engineers have failed to solve despite years of promises.

Subhash Chowk at the entry point of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway faces persistent congestion from nearly 20,000 daily vehicles. NHAI and GMDA plan infrastructure changes: widening service road along carriageway from two to three lanes, increasing distance between entry and exit points, adding footpaths and improved drainage to prevent waterlogging. Currently narrow service lanes cause traffic halts due to illegal parking and abrupt turns. Commuters report 15-20 minutes to cross the stretch onto Sohna Road. Peak congestion occurs 8:30-11:30am and 5:30-8:30pm. Vehicles spend additional 20-35 minutes on stretch, wasting thousands of litres of fuel daily and increasing pollution. Primary jam cause is vehicles getting entangled immediately after underpass. NHAI's project officer Yogesh Tilak stated distance between entry and exit points will be increased and service road widened. NHAI will launch detailed technical survey in coming days.

The planned elevated Gurugram Metro Rail Limited (GMRL) loop will run 28.5 km from Millennium City Centre to Cyber City, with 27 stations. It is being implemented through the Haryana Mass Rapid Transport Corporation (HMRTC), as a joint Central and Haryana government initiative.

Phase 1 will cover 15.2 km from Millennium City Centre to Sector 9, serving areas including Sectors 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 22 and 23, and Ashok Vihar. Construction is ongoing; the first pile foundation was laid in Sector 45 at the end of 2025, with work also reported along Neki Ram Marg and near Subhash Chowk.

Phase 2 will cover 13.3 km from Sector 9 to Cyber City. Civil-work tenders were open and work was due to begin in 2026; the route includes Udyog Vihar Phase 6, Sector 18 and Cyber Park. Interchanges are planned at Millennium City Centre (Delhi Metro Yellow Line) and Cyber City (Rapid Metro); a future RRTS interchange is planned at Sector 33.

A proposed 1.85-km spur will connect Basai Village to Sector 101 on Dwarka Expressway. Residents of sectors including 82A, 84, 88A, 89, 99, 101, 103, 106 and 108 currently face an additional 20–30 minutes travelling to the nearest metro. Phase 1 plans skywalks and feeder buses linking Dwarka Expressway sectors with Basai; direct Sector 101 metro access would follow when the spur opens.
