ISLAMABAD, Nov 09 (APP): Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) has issued a comprehensive traffic advisory for the ongoing One-Day and Tri-Nation Cricket Series being played at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, deploying over 300 officers across the federal capital to ensure smooth traffic flow and public convenience.
An ITP official told APP on Sunday that special arrangements have been made to facilitate the movement of cricket teams from Islamabad to the stadium and to minimize inconvenience to citizens.
