ISLAMABAD – Plains in Punjab are witnessing foggy weather conditions and poor visibility that continue to disrupt road travel.
The dense fog badly affected the flow of road traffic in several cities, and several sections of motorway have been closed. Motorway (M2) section from Islamabad toll plaza to Balkasar interchange has been closed, NHMP said in a post.
M3, M4, and other intra-city routes were closed as thick fog descended on Punjab routes, limiting commuter’s movement.
