ISLAMABAD: Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) conducted full dress rehearsals on Saturday in preparation for the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, scheduled to take place from October 14 to 16. The rehearsals are part of the final security and traffic arrangements for the high-profile international event.

Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Muhammad Sarfraz Virk said the ITP has implemented a comprehensive traffic plan designed to ensure smooth traffic flow and public safety throughout the summit.

The plan will designate specific routes for different types of traffic, and residents are encouraged to follow police instructions to facilitate the event’s smooth execution.

“Around 1,100 traffic officers will be deployed across the city to monitor traffic, assist residents, and ensure public safety,” CTO Virk announced. He also emphasized that the cooperation of citizens is critical to ensuring the success of the SCO summit.

To keep residents informed, ITP has urged citizens to stay updated on traffic conditions by tuning into Islamabad Police Radio FM 92.4 or contacting Pikaar 15, the police helpline.

“Your support is crucial in ensuring a successful SCO summit,” CTO Virk stressed.
