      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Karachi administration has imposed Section 144 to control heavy traffic outside of designated hours.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Heavy traffic would be permitted from 11pm to 6am, according to a notification.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Furthermore, heavy traffic would be allowed on three specific routes during daytime hours.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“A complete ban on the movement of heavy traffic inside the city limits, excluding vehicles carrying essential commodities (water, edible oil, liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen, medical gases categorized as life-saving drugs, meat, skin, and other related items), except during 10:00pm to 06:00am,” the notification said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also, the movement of dumpers carrying construction materials and mixture machines in all parts of the city is also banned.&lt;/p&gt;
