The Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) has unveiled a comprehensive traffic management plan to ensure smooth vehicular movement and public safety during New Year’s celebrations in the federal capital.

According to officials, more than 350 traffic officers and personnel will be deployed at major roads and key locations across Islamabad to regulate traffic and maintain order throughout the night.

As part of the plan, the entry of heavy vehicles into Islamabad will remain completely banned from 7:00 pm on December 31 to 3:00 am. The traffic police have warned of possible congestion on key arteries, including Islamabad Expressway, Jinnah Avenue, Srinagar Highway, Club Road, Murree Road, and Park Road.

Authorities expect increased traffic pressure at sensitive locations such as Jinnah Avenue Flyover, Zero Point, Khanna, and the PWD underpass.
