One of the key components of the traffic plan is the implementation of a detailed route management system. This system ensures that apple-laden vehicles follow designated routes that are regularly monitored and maintained for safety. By doing so, the police can manage traffic congestion more effectively and respond quickly to any issues that arise, such as road blockages or accidents.
For instance, vehicles should not be overloaded, and drivers must be cautious of speed limits to prevent accidents on slippery roads. Special precautions are advised during adverse weather conditions, such as heavy rain or snowfall, to ensure the safety of both the drivers and the precious cargo.
Also drivers should ensure loads are evenly distributed and securely tied down. Shifting loads can affect vehicle stability, particularly on sharp curves.
” Regular breaks to combat fatigue are advised, as drowsy driving poses significant risks. Drivers should ensure they are well-rested before starting their trips, stated the police advisory.
Talking about tourists, the advisory stated, ” Tourist vehicle drivers are reminded to ensure passengers wear seat belts and provide clear instructions to remain seated and avoid unnecessary movement.”

Moreover, the plan includes provisions for emergency response. In case of natural disasters or severe weather conditions, the District Disaster Management Operation Centers are on high alert to provide immediate assistance and ensure that the transportation of apples is not severely disrupted.
