It’s been months; daily commuters face heavy traffic congestion in the face of under-construction flyover next to the Gulab Devi Hospital underpass. To solve the issue, commissioner Lahore, Chaudhary Muhammad Ali Randhawa, has directed Lahore Development Authority (LDA) to complete the project within 2 months (by mid-April).
Media reports have revealed that Randhawa gave a deadline of 65 days (almost 2 months) to complete the flyover. In a bid to review the progress, Randhawa also visited the construction site.
On this occasion, Commissioner Lahore asked the railway authority and related departments to cooperate with LDA to complete the product. Expansion of the Lahore flyover will add more ease to the flow of traffic.
Citizens Would be Monitored Via Body Cams
In a bid to deal with complaints narrating traffic wardens’ misbehaving with citizens, chief traffic Police officer (CTO) Asad Malhi has come up with a new decision – proposed to install body cameras on the traffic wardens.
Mr. Malhi stated that citizens and traffic wardens would be monitored Via body cams. As per media reports, the summary to install body cams has been sent to IG Punjab t which will prove helpful in deterring criminals and law-abiding elements.
In another step to digitize the challan system, Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) has launched the Digital Warden App in Lahore. The app was launched during a ceremony presided by CTO Dr. Asad Malhi.
Senior officials including Saddar Cantt Superintendent of Police (SP) Asif Sadeeq, City SP Shehzad Khan, Mughalpura Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) M. Ishfaq, Cantt DSP Farrukh Raees and PITB Senior Program Manager Rai Rashid were present.
