The Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) has issued a special traffic plan to manage the arrival and departure of Pakistan Super League (PSL) cricket teams, ensuring smooth traffic flow and strict security on major city roads.
An ITP spokesperson said enhanced security arrangements are in effect along key routes, including the Expressway, Club Road, 9th Avenue, and Srinagar Highway.
Temporary traffic diversions will be implemented today from 5.30pm to 6.30pm and again from 12.30am to 1.30am to accommodate team movements. Motorists are advised to anticipate traffic delays during these hours and plan their travel accordingly.
Drivers are encouraged to use service roads linked to the Expressway and Srinagar Highway to avoid congested areas. For those heading to Blue Area, F-6, and F-7 sectors, the H-8 underpass is recommended.
Traffic to and from the Red Zone and Serena Hotel should use Margalla Road, Jinnah Avenue, Ayub Chowk, and NADRA Chowk, while travelers to Bari Imam are also advised to use NADRA Chowk. Commuters traveling to sectors I and H should take the Rawalpindi-Peshawar Road and IJP Road via adjacent service roads.
