ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad Police have issued an important traffic advisory for citizens today, warning of significant road diversions and potential delays between 1:30 PM and 2:30 PM.
During these hours, diversions will be enforced on major roads including Club Road, Murree Road, and the Express Highway, due to ongoing operations or events in the area. Motorists are advised to plan ahead and use alternative routes to avoid inconvenience.
The Srinagar Highway and internal service roads have been identified as the best alternatives for commuters during this time. However, travelers should allow an additional 20 to 25 minutes to their travel time as these alternative routes are expected to see higher traffic volumes.
Officers from the Islamabad Traffic Police will be present on the roads to help direct traffic and assist citizens with any issues. Authorities urge drivers to cooperate with traffic officials for smooth travel and to stay informed about any changes in road conditions.
For further updates or assistance, the public can contact the Islamabad Traffic Police’s Helpline at 1915 or Pukar 15 for real-time information.
Motorists are encouraged to stay alert, follow traffic rules, and plan their journeys accordingly to avoid disruptions in their daily commutes.
