Srinagar: Concerned citizens and parents have urged the traffic department to enforce stricter regulations on the movement of tippers and trucks between Lasjan and Mehjoor Nagar via Padshahi Bagh in Srinagar outskirts.

We’re worried about our children’s safety, and the situation is precarious. There is every possibility of a mishap,” said a concerned parent.Locals said that the constant flow of trucks and tippers endangers students, disrupts daily commutes, increases air pollution, and generates excessive noise.They appealed to the traffic department to take immediate action to regulate heavy vehicle movement.They called for strict enforcement of no-entry restrictions, designated alternative routes for heavy vehicles, increased traffic policing, and improved road safety measures.
