Mumbai Traffic Police (MTP) ne city mein heavy vehicles ki movement ko lekar naye restrictions announce kiye hain. Yeh naye rules 1 February se apply honge.
New order ke according, heavy vehicles ko subah 8 baje se 11 baje tak aur shaam 5 baje se raat 9 baje tak Mumbai mein entry allowed nahi hogi.
South Mumbai mein rules aur strict honge. Yahan sabhi heavy vehicles, including luxury buses, ko subah 7 baje se raat 12 baje tak ban kiya gaya hai. Is time ke dauran sirf essential goods le jaane wali gaadiyon ko entry ki permission hogi. South Mumbai mein heavy vehicles sirf raat 12 baje se subah 7 baje ke beech allowed rahenge.
Authorities ke mutabik, gaadiyon ki sankhya mein tezi se badhotri aur Mumbai bhar mein chal rahe infrastructure projects traffic jams ka main reason hain. Officials ne bataya ki heavy vehicles peak hours mein traffic flow slow kar dete hain, jisse motorists, two-wheeler riders aur pedestrians ko kaafi dikkat hoti hai.
Iske alawa, traffic police ne heavy vehicles ke liye parking rules bhi aur strict kar diye hain. Ab aisi gaadiyon ko sirf private ya rented parking spaces, ya phir authorised pay-and-park zones mein hi park karne ki permission hogi.
Public roads par heavy vehicles ki parking completely ban kar di gayi hai. Haan, water supply points ke paas nearby roads par sirf do water tankers ko park karne ki ijazat di jaayegi.
