The growing encroachments in different bazaars, footpaths and roads of the provincial capital are hindering the mobility of the people.
The district administration is paying no heed to the problem, that has encouraged shopkeepers, car bargainers and others to encroach roads and footpaths in front of their shops.
Talking to APP on Thursday, the residents of the city complained that the pedestrain are even unable to walk freely through these encroachments in their daily business. Most of the people park their vehicles at wrong places, further aggravating the situation. Wrong parking by the traders of their vehicles and motorbikes is also a cause of traffic jam. Illegal motor workshops at University Road were adding to the agony of people.
The traders have also occupied footpaths, with vendors setting up carts and stalls on roads, turning the bazaars into a mess for public.
The people demanded of the Peshawar Development Authority to take strict action against the encroachers.
Meanwhile, the DIG Inquiry and Investigations said that action against encroachers at Saddar and University Road would be taken very soon.
He said people could drop their complaints and suggestions in the boxes placed in different parts of the city regarding traffic police department and officials, he added.
