Police Commissioner issues orders based on corporation Commissioner’s letter
The circular one-way rule being enforced on a trial basis by Mangaluru City Traffic Police from Clock Tower to Clock Tower since over a month was on Thursday regularised with the Police Commissioner issuing a formal notification.
Police Commissioner N. Shashi Kumar, who, as Additional District Magistrate, issued the orders, said that the Mangaluru City Corporation Commissioner had written to him on September 16 seeking declaration of the Maidan Road from Clock Tower to Clock Tower via A.B. Shetty Circle, Hamilton Circle and Rao and Rao Circle as one-way. The corporation Commissioner had quoted a decision by a Mangaluru Smart City Ltd. meeting chaired by the Mayor on August 14.
The Assistant Commissioner of Police (Traffic) examined the letter of the corporation Commissioner and gave a report. The report said that the one-way traffic rule will help the smooth flow of vehicular traffic in the central business district (CBD). As many roads converge into Maidan Road at different places, one-way traffic will help smooth integration of traffic.
