Traffic mess

Letter February 22, 2019
Provincial govt should work with the relevant departments to fix the traffic mess on Karachi roads

KARACHI: The traffic mess in the city of Karachi is worsening by the day. It seems like there is no time in the metropolis when there isn’t a traffic jam.

Almost all roads at any hour of the day are chocked, making it impossible for Karachiites to reach any destination on time.

Traffic policemen do little to avert the situation and ask for bribes whenever there is a chance.

The provincial government should work with the relevant departments to fix the traffic mess on Karachi roads. Not only the people’s work but their lives are also being affected owing to the growing traffic congestion on roads.
