Karachi: Owing to the city’s increasing traffic woes, Karachi Traffic Police have devised a plan in view of the heavy crowd in markets ahead of Eid ul Fitr.
The traffic plan provisions a ban on the entry of taxis and rickshaws in various markets, which have been plagued by overcrowding.
Under the new restrictions, taxis—including on-call ones—and rickshaws have been banned at Teen Talwar, and commuters have been advised to use Clifton Bridge, Race Course, and Khaliq uz Zaman Road.
Entry of taxis and rickshaws has also been prohibited at the load leading from Tariq Road to Ittehad Signal.
Similarly, the said vehicles will not be allowed between Saddar, Fawara Chowk, and GPO, and Singer Chowk to Zaibunnisa Street and Jama Cloth to Eidgah Chowk, as well as the Hyderi Market road.
