Important Traffic Advisory: Anticipate Disruptions Due to Protests
- The traffic plan shared by authorities may become ineffective once protesters enter the city. Partially open roads and alternative routes are likely to experience severe congestion.
- Protesters may stage sit-ins wherever they are stopped.
- It is highly advisable to depart early to ensure a safe and timely arrival home. Please stick to your designated lanes to help maintain smooth traffic flow. While the expressway currently has two open lanes, a complete closure remains a possibility.
- Regarding evening road clearance, predictions are beyond my control.
- I cannot guarantee the safety of the following routes:
- If Rawat T Cross is closed, use Saddar Road in Rawalpindi as an alternative.
- If Peshawar GT Road is closed, use the Motorway.
- If there are closures on Srinagar Highway G-14, use Peshawar Road, GT Road, and Karnal Sher Khan Road.
- If Faizabad is inaccessible on the Expressway, those coming from Rawalpindi can use Khanna Bridge, Lehtrar Road, Captain Tufail Shaheed Road, and Park Road.
- Commuters traveling from Rawalpindi can also take 9th Avenue
