ISLAMABAD: People living in areas alongside Murree Expressway have
demanded construction of flyovers in populated areas. They also called
for erection of safety walls at proper sites.
Flyovers have been
constructed in less populated areas where they are not needed. Athal
Chowk Bahra Kahu is most congested and populated venue of the area but
no fly over has been built, complained a group of traders.
"We
have to wait for hours to cross the road due to flooding traffic," said
Umair, a resident of the area. The poor patients cannot cross the road
and have to face agony of long hours wait due to traffic congestion,
said a patient.
Safety walls are required to be erected in the
areas which are exposed to land sliding but along side Murree Express
way these norms have not been kept in view while building safety walls,
residents said in one voice. Online
