TRAFFIC in Balochistan’s industrial city Hub has gone from bad to worse owing to encroachments, the rickshaw mafia and the increasing number of heavy vehicles, which commute daily between Balochistan and Karachi.

Thousands of Karachiites travel daily to Hub for work. The RCD highway remains clogged throughout day and night. One can see ambulances stuck for hours in this mess. The main road is in a pathetic condition since hence one cannot see the road clearly because of dust.

I urge the government to repair all roads and construct a bypass as soon as possible.
