Punjab's Green Lane for motorcyclists faces serious visibility issues

The Punjab Safe Cities Authority's new Green Lane for motorcyclists has faced issues after heavy rain washed away the paint, making the lanes slippery. This has raised concerns about the project's quality and effectiveness, especially given its budget of Rs 110 million. The Green Lane, designed to improve traffic flow on Ferozepur Road, is 10 kilometers long and separated from the main road by a low concrete wall. Residents have expressed doubts about the project's safety and visibility, noting that the washed-out paint has made it hard for motorcyclists to navigate. Despite claims from the PSCA that the lanes have improved traffic and reduced accidents, public skepticism remains. Residents are calling for better enforcement and clearer markings to ensure safety for all road users.
