The Motorway M-3 has been closed between Jaranwala and Dukhana due to heavy fog, authorities confirmed. A spokesperson for the Central Region Motorways Police said the decision was taken to protect lives and property, as poor visibility and lane violations during foggy conditions significantly increase the risk of serious accidents. The spokesperson advised motorists to strictly observe lane discipline and, where possible, travel during daylight hours. According to the Motorways Police, the safest time for travel in foggy weather is between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm. Drivers were also urged to use fog lights, avoid unnecessary journeys, refrain from speeding, and maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead. Road users seeking assistance or guidance were advised to contact the Motorways Police helpline at 130.
