Islamabad: Commuters at major bus stops of Pir Wadhai have expressed their dismay over the poor performance of traffic police, which fails to regulate the traffic before Eid at the busy bus stop of twin city.
The traffic flow increased at the bus stop due to Eid rush as residents of twin cities move towards their native place to celebrate Eid with their loved ones but the frequent traffic jams at the Pirwadhai and IJ Principal Road delay movement of vehicles for hours.
Sellers of sacrificial animals also set up stalls at the footpath of IJ Principal Road, which also multiples the worries of the people who wish to reach their destination at the earliest. “”I am sitting in a coach for the last one and a half hour but it is moving with slow pace due to traffic jam,” Asghar who was going to Multan to celebrate Eid commented.
Construction material placed at different points of the IJ Principal road for under construction patches of the road also encroaches the road and create hurdles in the traffic flow, said Akhtar who travels daily on this road.
