Traffic safety challenges for the Umrah season

What is traffic safety related to the holy month of Ramadan and these current and upcoming months? We may forget its importance in the coming months.

We will discuss the importance and relevance of road safety during this great month and some steps towards improving it to ensure the highest safety level.

Traffic safety is essential during Ramadan

With the approaching holy month of Ramadan, the spiritual feelings that dominate Muslims worldwide during this month, and its great importance in their hearts, improving traffic control is significant.

Umrah trips increased during recent months, especially during the month of Ramadan, and a large number of Muslims from all over the world come to perform the rituals of Umrah and enjoy this holy month. Therefore, paying attention to traffic control in the coming period is very necessary to avoid congestion and disruption of traffic, as well as avoiding accidents.

Traffic safety is affected during the Umrah

It is very important to pay attention to traffic control during this upcoming period and Ramadan in particular, as the existence of a large number of Umrah pilgrims will affect traffic in terms of safety and flow.

Impact on traffic flow

Not knowing the correct route to reach the desired destination or individuals taking the wrong route leads to traffic disruption and congestion, as well as wasting a lot of time and effort in resolving these issues after they occur.

Impact on the safety of individuals and passengers

Not all pilgrims are from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, so they may not be familiar with the road system and traffic rules, such as crossing roads, pedestrian walkways, and paths for the disabled. Therefore, it is necessary to provide special information directed at them and explain the safety systems and products used to protect and secure them. Additionally, it provides traffic systems and products that work to secure the vehicles transporting pilgrims and protect the lives of passengers.

How to improve traffic control during Umrah

After presenting the issues that Umrah pilgrims may face in terms of traffic control, such as congestion and personal safety, we will show you effective solutions to ensure that these issues won’t occur.

Traffic control in Congestion

To avoid traffic congestion, it is necessary to provide road signs such as Gantry and Cantilever. Due to their huge size, we mounted them on one side of the road, such as the cantilever on a strong steel pole, and carried the names of the areas within cities or roads leading out of cities, as well as the names of some utilities. All this makes it easier to reach the target destination without distraction. Due to its huge size, one can see it at night also because of the reflective films attached to it with place names, as well as the Gantry outside the cities.

Street name signs are also essential, along with warning signs to warn of road obstructions, speeding, etc.

Traffic control for individuals and passengers

As for individuals, pedestrians must be allocated their pedestrian crossings to ensure their safety and secure these crossings with traffic systems such as flexible posts, as well as pedestrian crossing lanes, and providing them with luminous tiles that connect harmoniously with traffic lights to preserve the lives of pilgrims as well as organize traffic.

Traffic safety makes a difference in the Umrah season

Due to the importance of the Umrah season for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and all Muslims, the KSA and officials need to take care of it in all aspects. One of the forms of this concern is fully realizing safety.

So if you follow the previous steps in optimizing traffic safety, you will ensure the best season of Hajj and Umrah. For more details about the traffic safety products that can use in this season, you can contact us through our various means.
