Signals Alone Can't Manage Traffic, Says SSP Traffic

Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Traffic City, Ajaz Ahmad Bhat, on Tuesday said that traffic lights in Srinagar cannot function independently at present due to excessive pressure and incomplete supporting infrastructure.

This, he said, compels authorities to manually regulate movement during peak hours.

Speaking to reporters at Hawal Srinagar, SSP Bhat, as per KNO said the signal lights don't work on their own. "When the traffic pressure increases, we are forced to switch off the signals and manage the flow manually," he said.
