Unending traffic chaos on Akhnoor road | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Apr 30: The traffic chaos on Jammu- Akhnoor road has added to woes of people in general and commuters in particular. Massive jams are witnessed almost daily on this road right from Damana to Canal, Bakshi Nagar. However the problem takes a grave turn during marriage season when people get trapped in big traffic jams for hours together. Scores of marriage halls have come up along the road and during marriage season, the roads get chocked. In addition to marriage halls there are over one dozen educational institutions along Akhnoor and Akalpur road which too contribute to traffic congestion especially in the morning and afternoon. Though traffic jams for long duration are witnessed on this road the authorities and traffic police acts as a mute spectator. Instead of regulating traffic the Traffic policemen are either seen indulged in gossip or follow the long route four wheelers or trucks etc to check their papers and only leave them after their palms are greased. The locals said, the traffic police must remove encroachments especially on Talab Tiloo Akhalpur road and not allow parking of two wheelers and four wheelers on the road for smooth plying of traffic. "If this is done the additional traffic of Akhnoor road due to four lanning of Akhnoor road is diverted from there", they said. |
