LDA Announces New Traffic Measures for Schools in Lahore

The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) has announced new traffic management measures aimed at reducing congestion and enhancing student safety around schools and other educational institutions within its jurisdiction in Lahore. Key initiatives include designating specific drop-off and pick-up lanes outside schools to prevent vehicles from obstructing main roads, and the LDA director general has ordered the removal of encroachments that narrow roads and disrupt traffic, especially during peak hours. Furthermore, the authority plans to install zebra crossings to facilitate safer road crossing for children and place traffic signboards for clearer instructions to motorists. This comprehensive initiative also involves identifying specific traffic problems around educational institutions to improve vehicle movement and protect students, ultimately aiming to alleviate congestion during school arrival and departure times and make surrounding roads safer for all users.
