LUCKNOW, Aug. 6 -- : The Lucknow Traffic Police, in coordination with the Lucknow Municipal Corporation (LMC), will start a strict no-parking enforcement drive across eight major zones of the city from August 6. The aim is to ease traffic congestion and deal with growing complaints of illegal parking in busy areas.

As part of the campaign, 16 cranes will be used to tow vehicles found parked in no-parking zones. These vehicles will be taken to designated dumping yards set up at enforcement booths in each zone.

Officials said the drive is being carried out in commercial and high-traffic areas where illegal parking often causes roadblocks and traffic jams. Before full enforcement begins, a two-day awareness campaign will run from August 6....
