The joint “Operation Tatarovi” currently underway between the Fiji Police Force and Land Transport Authority will be paying particular attention to the issue of illegal parking especially at bus bays.
Director Traffic SSP Mahesh Mishra says this follows concerns raised by bus operators because of their inability to properly use the bus bays to pick and drop passengers as it would be occupied by other vehicles especially during peak hours.
He says it is also a concern for road safety authorities because of the safety implications it will have on the traveling public.
Mishra says people are either getting off in traffic congested areas or moving between buses because other vehicles are using the bus bays.
He says they are requesting road users to be mindful of this as the joint operation team will be strictly monitoring this issue.
