ISLAMABAD: Islamabad Capital Territory Police (ICTP) has issued a traffic plan in the wake of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan’s visit to Islamabad High Court (IHC).
According to an official tweet from ICTP, the Red Zone entry and exit points are closed from Ayub Chowk and Express Chowk.
Alternatively, motorists can use Serena Chowk, Margallah Road and 3rd Road to commute to the said area. Additionally, NADRA Chowk is open for bike riders only. Reports from various sources have cautioned against using roads around the court to avoid unforeseen issues.
Islamabad Expressway is divided into two parts — the part ahead of Koral interchange (en route Islamabad), which always remains in tip-top shape, and the part behind the interchange, which has consistently received ‘step-child treatment’ from the federal administration.
Residents of various housing societies located alongside the latter half have criticized the administration for their lack of care. Along with damaging vehicles, the dilapidated condition of the unmarked road has become life-threateningly terrible.
