The Karachi Traffic Police have implemented a detailed diversion plan for the upcoming Youm-al-Quds rally, which is scheduled for the 27th of Ramadan, immediately following Friday prayers.
The procession will begin at Numaish and conclude at Tibet Center, requiring temporary route adjustments across central Karachi.
- Vehicles approaching from Teen Hatti or Lasbela should turn right at Guru Mandir for Soldier Bazaar or left from Banori Single towards PPP Chowrangi
- Traffic originating from Preddy Street and Regal will be redirected from Preddy Chowk and Saddar Dawakhana toward PPP Chowrangi
- Commuters from Fresco Chowk and Eid Gah Chowk must use alternate routes via Jubilee, Aga Khan Swim Road, Uncle Syria, or Nishtar Road
Additional rerouting measures affect:
- Vehicles coming from Dawood Puta Road and Lucky Star, which will be diverted from Preddy Chowk
- Traffic from Aga Khan Swim Road and Garden areas redirected to Bahadur Yar Jang Road
The Traffic Police emphasize public cooperation to ensure smooth traffic flow during the event. Motorists are strongly advised to plan alternate routes to avoid delays. For real-time assistance, the public can:
