Islamabad, Oct 28: Murree Snowfall Season Plan Announced Comprehensive Safety Measures Rolled Out for Tourists
A comprehensive protection plan has been released by the districts of Rawalpindi and Murree administrations for the 2024–25 Murree snowfall season, which is scheduled to begin on November 1 and end on February 28.
The Rawalpindi Commissioner has accepted this effort, which attempts to improve safety in the wake of the horrific events of 2022, when 22 people lost their lives due to severe snow.
Throughout the season, staff from the National Highway Authority, Forest Department, Civil Defence, and Traffic Police will be stationed in Murree as part of the safety plan. To assist these seasonal efforts, a Rs59.3 million emergency fund has been asked.
In order to support this effort even more, 100 civil defense volunteers are being sent out with complete safety kits that include flashlights, rain gear, and life jackets so they can help tourists right away.
The administration anticipates that by strengthening safety measures, visitors will have a safer experience during Murree’s winter season.
