Islamabad, Feb 8: Lahore’s Traffic Police have rolled out a comprehensive traffic management plan to ensure smooth vehicle movement during the upcoming tri-nation cricket series. Over 1,000 traffic officers will be deployed across the city to regulate traffic flow and minimize congestion. To address illegal parking, 20 forklifts and four breakdown vehicles will be used to keep the roads clear.
Cricket fans will have access to designated parking areas, including spots near Government College, Liberty, CBD near Centre Point, and LDA Plaza. While no roads will be permanently closed during the series, temporary traffic disruptions may occur when teams are on the move, though roads will be reopened as soon as the teams pass through.
Key routes like Mall Road, Jail Road, Canal Road, and Ferozepur Road will remain accessible throughout the event. The Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) has advised residents to avoid restricted parking zones and use the designated parking areas to reduce congestion.
Commuters can stay updated on traffic conditions through the Rasta app and Rasta FM 88.6. Authorities have reassured the public that, if motorists follow the guidelines, the event will cause minimal inconvenience.
