Operation ROPE lassos in violations, brings order to streets

Operation ROPE (Removal of Obstructive Parking & Encroachments) in the city has brought about a significant change in the personal commuting behaviour of citizens. The change can be witnessed at all intersections in the city, Hyderabad Traffic Police (HTP) said on Friday.

Strict drives against wrong-side driving and triple riding on two-wheelers have also brought new attention to road safety, they said.

According to a statement on enforcement released by the HTP, as many as 42 FIRs were booked in April for encroachments, taking the total such cases to 332 in the year.
