Karachi commissioner has enforced Section 144 for two months to regulate the movement of heavy traffic within the city amid rising fatalities.
According to the official notification, the restriction aims to streamline the movement of heavy vehicles within Karachi’s limits to ensure public safety.
Under the new regulations, dumpers will be prohibited from operating in Karachi from 10 PM to 6 AM. However, heavy vehicles transporting construction materials will be allowed to enter designated routes.
Exemptions have been granted for specific areas, allowing vehicles to operate from National Highway via Godam Chowrangi to Jam Sadiq Bridge, as well as from Northern Bypass to East and West Wharf.
The restriction on heavy vehicles and dumpers will remain in effect for two months.
