To regulate traffic in the city, a proposal has been made to impose restrictions on heavy vehicles and luxury buses carrying passengers, specifically targeting certain routes identified by the police department. Consequently, the entry of heavy vehicles and passengers originating from outside Akola Metropolitan City, as well as those travelling on inner city routes, will be prohibited from 8 am to 10 pm. However, District Collector Nima Arora has issued an order to relax this ban for heavy vehicles transporting essential goods, allowing them to operate from 2 pm to 4 pm.
From 10 pm to 8 am, heavy vehicles are permitted to operate on the Akola city route, whereas a complete ban on their entry is in effect from 8 am to 10 pm. The police department has proposed a relaxation for heavy vehicles transporting essential goods in the city between 2 pm and 4 pm, specifically on selected routes. Additionally, designated routes are to be used for the movement of passengers in luxury buses within the city.
