The pushcarts have occupied roads and are causing inconvenience to the passengers and motorists in several areas of Peshawar. Kohat Road, Nauthia, Ramdas bazaar and roads in several other areas remain crowded due to these pushcarts and poor traffic management. One can notice open manholes in several areas that may cause accidents.
