The discussion also covered the role of transport agencies and emergency services in ensuring seamless movement.\n\nThe agenda addressed immediate and medium term interventions including traffic regulation, rationalisation of parking, enhancement of signage and streamlining of major intersections.

Follow up reviews were scheduled to evaluate the effectiveness of measures and to refine interventions where necessary.\n\nStakeholders were urged to share data and analytic inputs to facilitate evidence based interventions and to establish clear metrics for success. The Div Com underlined the importance of regular reporting and inter agency cooperation to reduce incidents and improve journey times for commuters. Departments were tasked to submit progress updates ahead of the next review.
