Daily VIP movement in Islamabad is causing persistent traffic disruptions, with residents facing long queues and unexpected road closures that bring routine commutes to a standstill. Many citizens say that frequent protocols on major routes have turned short trips into prolonged delays, often without any prior alerts or alternative arrangements.
Commuters report that these disruptions are affecting office timings, school drop-offs, and daily productivity. Drivers are left waiting for extended periods as convoys pass, while public transport users experience equally long delays.
Growing public frustration has sparked calls for a more balanced system that maintains necessary security measures without repeatedly overwhelming the city’s traffic flow or disrupting everyday life.
