Rawalpindi: As educational institutions reopen, Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Rawalpindi Farhan Aslam has directed the implementation of a comprehensive traffic management plan to ensure smooth vehicular movement around schools and colleges.

All circle and sector in-charges have been instructed to coordinate closely with school administrations, while traffic wardens will remain on duty during opening and closing hours to prevent congestion.

The CTO said only single-line parking will be permitted at dispersal times. Fork lifters will be deployed to remove wrongly parked vehicles, while additional wardens and patrol units will be stationed on major roads and intersections.

School administrations have been advised to designate clear pick-and-drop lanes, and no street vendors or pushcarts will be allowed outside institutions. The Traffic Education Unit will also organize awareness sessions on road safety and traffic laws for students.

Urging citizens to fully comply with traffic rules, CTO Farhan Aslam stressed that collective responsibility is key to ensuring uninterrupted traffic flow in the city.
