The Kathmandu Metropolitan City has prepared to place road signs on the roads under its jurisdiction from this July for road safety.

The earlier signs have now been obliterated in many places. Jagatman Shrestha, traffic management consultant of Kampa, has informed that due to the lack of markings on the roads, there are also problems in accidents and traffic management. According to

consultant Shrestha, the necessary materials for placing the sign have been brought and the work will be started from this month of July. He said that in cooperation with the department, preparations for putting road signs on all roads other than the main highway have been completed by KAMPA.

Kampa has also prepared to give public awareness to pedestrians and drivers about how to use the road. Adviser Shrestha informed that since many drivers and passengers do not know how to use the road where there are road signs and where there are no road signs, accidents are increasing due to simple mistakes in recent times.

In this financial year, Kampa has prepared to add necessary materials to the road. Kampa believes that security will be strengthened by installing devices such as traffic cones, dividers, and road markings.

Kampa has also started the work of forming a traffic club with the aim of imparting traffic education to public school students. Consultant Shrestha said that a traffic club will be formed by involving 10 to 15 students from each school and the selected students will be trained by the traffic police. According to

Shrestha, those selected students help children to cross the road when they come and go to school (from 9 am to 10 am and from 3 pm to 4 pm).
