Imphal, July 12 2018:
Even though one-way traffic norm is applied on the streets of both Thangal Keithel and Paona Keithel, traffic congestion has not declined a bit in the two biggest commercial hubs of the State.
Unloading of heavy vehicles at Paona Keithel and Thangal Keithel are done only during night and early morning.
Notwithstanding the presence of Traffic Police on different streets and roads of Paona Keithel and Thangal Keithel, two-wheelers and other light vehicles including DI Tatas have been flouting the one-way traffic norm.
Many commuters have commented that traffic flow can be streamlined considerably if the one-way traffic norm is enforced strictly and parking different types of vehicles from morning till late evening on the sides of these busy streets and roads are checked.
Another major factor contributing to traffic congestion is double parking of vehicles at the areas designated as parking lots, they added.
