Superintendent of Police, Manik Das, announced today that efforts are underway to enhance traffic management in various areas of the city.
The statement was made during a public awareness campaign held at Nabodaya Sangha premises near Durga Chowmuhani Bazar. Dibakar Das from the Transport Department and the President of the Market Committee, along with other leaders, were present at the event.
SP Das highlighted the identification of problem areas and the implementation of programs aimed at improving traffic management. He expressed concern over the illegal parking of vehicles on city roads, which leads to significant traffic congestion. The initial focus will be on raising awareness to discourage such illegal practices. Any individuals found violating traffic rules, despite the awareness efforts, will face legal consequences. SP Das also emphasized taking action against those who unlawfully occupy footpaths.
He said that if Traffic Police found anyone of violating rules even after creating awareness, legal action will be taken.
“Action will be started against those who occupied the footpath illegally”, said SP.
Traffic congestion remains a persistent issue in Agartala, even on holidays. The growing number of vehicles in the city and widespread parking contribute to this problem. Public concerns regarding the traffic system have prompted the Tripura Traffic Unit to prioritize public awareness and discourage illegal vehicle parking.
