Strict E-Tag Enforcement Begins in Islamabad

Islamabad authorities have started strict enforcement of the Electronic Tag (E-Tag) system, stopping vehicles without valid tags at key entry points into the capital. The move is part of a broader traffic management plan aimed at reducing congestion and enhancing security across the city.

Major routes including Ninth Avenue, Margalla Avenue, and the G-14 checkpoint are under close monitoring. Police teams, supported by the Dolphin Squad, are ensuring that only vehicles with registered E-Tags are allowed entry.

To strengthen the system, 12 E-Tag readers have been activated across entry points. These automated devices detect vehicles instantly, helping authorities regulate traffic more efficiently and prevent unauthorized access.

Officials emphasized that immediate compliance is required. Drivers without E-Tags will be denied entry, while those with proper registration can expect smoother passage through checkpoints.

The initiative is designed to improve traffic flow, reduce delays, and enhance surveillance. Authorities believe the system will not only ease congestion but also provide an added layer of security for Islamabad’s residents.

Commuters are advised to register for E-Tags promptly to avoid inconvenience. With enforcement now in full swing, the system marks a significant step toward modernizing Islamabad’s transport and traffic management framework.
