According to details, the visibility has dropped due to dense fog on main roads in plain areas across the province as a result Motorway M5 from Multan to Dahir Pir and Lahore-Sialkot Motorway M11 from Muridke to Sambrial have been closed for all kind of traffic.

The Motorway police have appealed the drivers to use Grand Trunk (GT) Road for travelling. They have also urged the drivers to drive slowly and switch on fog lights.

The Motorway police have also requested the people to stay home and avoid unnecessary travelling. Dense fog has also disrupted traffic at several places in the province at the National Highway due to low visibility.
