A road divider in Mohali is being used without any warning signals, prompting safety concerns over possible accidents.
Mohali authorities have observed that a traffic divider on a busy city road is being operated without any visual or audible warning devices. The divider, which is intended to manage vehicle flow, is moving while commuters are unaware of its motion.
The absence of standard caution signs or flashing lights has raised alarm among regular road users, who fear that sudden movements could lead to collisions, especially during peak traffic hours. Safety experts note that such unmarked operations increase the likelihood of accidents and can cause confusion among drivers and pedestrians alike.
Local residents and motorists have reported the issue to municipal officials, urging immediate remedial action. Officials are expected to assess the situation and install appropriate warning mechanisms to mitigate the risk and ensure smoother traffic management.
