Leave early for work to avoid traffic congestion: Official



RIYADH: The Traffic Department in the capital has taken all necessary measures to streamline vehicular traffic during the month of Ramadan, but appealed to motorists to leave for work early.
When everybody goes to work 15 minutes before 10 am, this almost paralyzes the main road of the capital, especially those roads under Riyadh Metro project, a traffic official said.
In its announcement, the traffic department said it is ready to regulate the flow of traffic and deal with any accident that may occur during Ramadan.
The traffic plan includes their extensive presence in the evening until the early hours of the next morning on main and branch roads leading to mosques with high density.
The official said traffic personnel will be shifted to work in the evenings throughout the week, including Friday and Saturday, in view of the high volume of transportation on the main streets leading to commercial centers, as well as programming the timing of traffic signals to accommodate the largest number of cars.
The official has, however, advised government and private sector employees to go to work places much early in the morning in order to reach on time and avoid the rush.
