One hour from Barwa Messaimeer to Woqood R/A

It took me one hour today afternoon just from Barwa Housing Messaimeer to Woqood R/A. This distance should not take just more than 2 minutes.

There was huge traffic jam, and no other ways out once you are on this road. Because there is road works going on, even you can not go off the track; it’s blocked through big concrete barriers.

This road is connected from Wukair and Wakra road. Many people from those areas use also this road in addition to barwa messaimeer housing, churches, 2 big schools. Plus always there is heavy loaded traffic (trailers, water tanks, cranes, nachaals); this road does not come under heavy traffic restriction, so all the day we face trailers also.

Population and cars are increased scientifically in this area, but road is just one double track. There was another road from the back area going towards Air Force R/A. But that road is also closed for the new road construction. So all the crowd from everywhere gathers at one point.
On top of that Woqood R/A green signals timing is very short, it gets red very quickly. So its long waiting every day just to reach this R/A.

Everyday it takes 30 - 60 minutes during peak hours just at one R/A and even the same other way around to get in Barwa housing from this R/A. Because on the other side also you get stuck with the 2 big schools traffic and road work. Now a day they have closed all the tracks on this road except one track. just imagine all the huge huge traffic passing through one track.
