Traffic congestion is becoming a major issue in Uttarakhand’s major cities like Dehradun and Haridwar. Increased vehicular movement, especially during tourist seasons, has caused severe traffic jams. This not only affects daily commuters but also contributes to increased pollution levels and road accidents. In response, the Uttarakhand Police are implementing measures to improve traffic flow and reduce accidents.
The police have introduced better traffic management systems, including improved signage, use of traffic cameras, and deployment of personnel at key intersections. They are also focusing on educating the public about road safety and penalties for violations. Despite these efforts, the rapid urbanization of Uttarakhand continues to strain the transportation infrastructure.
