Published on: 

Punjab Government has decided to launch a statewide campaign to put up modern signage along all national and State highways besides demarcating all roads with white centre and border lines to ensure road safety and guide commuters.

These road safety initiatives would help in saving precious lives in road accident on one hand and would indicate the location and direction of the villages and other destinations in the night, said State Public Works Department (PWD) Minister Sharanjit Singh Dhillon on Friday.

Dhillon said that the work on this project would be commenced soon and completed with stipulated time period. He said senior officers of the department have been instructed to make supervisory visit to the various project under construction to monitor the progress of work and its quality and to ensure the timely completion of the work.
