Bhat Circle — the prominent roundabout junction in the GIDC Bhat area of Gandhinagar district on the Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar border — is one of the most strategically positioned and most rapidly developing highway transit junctions in the entire Ahmedabad Metropolitan Region. Situated on the Sardar Patel Ring Road (SP Ring Road / 132 Feet Road) at the convergence of the Sughad Road, the Gandhinagar–Ahmedabad Road (NH-147), and the GIDC Bhat industrial and residential access roads, the circle serves as the daily navigation landmark for the employees of Bhat GIDC industrial units, the residents of the Bhat and Sughad residential developments, and the enormous flow of traffic on the SP Ring Road northern corridor. The Swaminarayan Gurukul — one of Gujarat’s most celebrated educational and spiritual institutions — is directly adjacent to Bhat Circle, giving the junction an additional layer of religious and cultural significance. GIDC Bhat Metro Station on Gujarat Metro Line 3 (Yellow Line — Motera Stadium to Sector 24, Gandhinagar) brings direct Metro access to Bhat Circle, with the first Line 3 train at 8:18 AM and the last at 8:26 PM. Apollo Hospital, Bhat Village — one of the zone’s most important healthcare facilities — is approximately 1.3 kilometres away.
