PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government is going to introduce Traffic Warden Service system to facilitate smooth traffic flow on the roads of the provincial capital.
Chief Minister Pervez Khattak has already approved a summary to recruit 669 personnel for the Traffic Warden Service in Peshawar while in later stages the service will also be introduced in Abbottabad and Dera Ismail Khan districts.
According to the summary, the provincial government has realised that the existing traffic policing system lacks qualified manpower, logistics, other resources and training. It was, therefore, decided to revamp and replace the existing enforcement system with the modern Traffic Warden System.
The Traffic Warden Service will not only facilitate the traffic flows on roads, but its personnel will also educate and assist road users in a professional manner, improve road safety and ensure better service delivery.
The Traffic Warden Service for Peshawar has been envisaged to be a specialised force manned by educated professionals who will optimise modern traffic management strategies for public service.
It has been mentioned in the summary that a total strength of 1989 traffic police personnel in different ranks along with other logistics were required. Out of these 1989 personnel, the existing strength of Peshawar Traffic Police is 1320 in different ranks, which will be merged into the new Traffic Warden Service while an additional manpower of 669 personnel would also be recruited.
The chief minister has sanctioned 669 new posts of various nomenclatures along with equipment, transport, staff training and infrastructure with total estimated cost of Rs539.635 million.
The summary states that assistant sub-inspectors (ASIs) and IT staff for Traffic Wardens Service will be recruited through Public Service Commission, while constables will be recruited through National Testing Service (NTS). Similarly, the ministerial staff will be recruited through Educational Testing and Evaluation Agency (ETEA).
The other staff, including SSP, SPs, DSPs, inspectors and sub-inspectors will be selected and inducted from the existing strength of the provincial police and transferred to the Traffic Warden Service until the newly recruited officers gradually replace them by promotions.
