Need for Permanent Measures to Keep Service Roads Clear

TLDR

• Service lanes along major roads in Dar es Salaam have been cleared of most lorries that previously occupied them.
• This change follows a directive from Dar es Salaam Regional Commissioner Albert Chalamila to remove illegally parked lorries.
• The directive was issued after an ultimatum for cargo truck operators to remove their vehicles expired last week.
• Areas along Mandela and Kilwa roads, including Ubungo and the Tanzania Institute of Accountancy, are now largely free of lorries, improving traffic flow.
• Residents have welcomed the development, noting it has enhanced safety and ease of movement for pedestrians.
