To guarantee a smooth Christmas celebration throughout the state, regular and special marshals have been stationed along the main thoroughfares by the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Zamfara Command.Ambulances and other patrol vehicles were also stationed at the flash sites for rescue and emergency situations during the duration of the special patrol.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Gusau was informed on Tuesday by Sector Commander Mr. Iro Danladi that more people usually travel during this time for the Christmas and New Year celebrations.
According to Danladi, the steps were made since the organization is in charge of managing and administering road traffic and is tasked with keeping the roads safe for both public and motorized traffic.
All of the command's employees and special marshals were stationed in key locations to prevent traffic bottlenecks and collisions both before and after the year-end celebrations.
Ambulances were stationed in Gusau, Tsafe, Talata Mafara, Kaura Namoda, and Maru, according to the commander.
Every day, sixteen operating cars were made available for use in emergencies throughout the fourteen local government regions.
He claimed that staff members assigned to public education have identified crash-prone regions.
He noted that despite the state capital's present urban development, the command has sent out personnel for traffic control and clearance in order to prevent cars and other road users from becoming obstructed.
Danladi restate the necessity for drivers to abstain from acts that could result in traffic accidents, such as overloading, speeding, wrongful overtaking, and using a phone while operating a vehicle.
He was grateful for the federal and state governments' dedication to funding the construction of new highways.
