Odd-Even Rule Not Applicable To Trucks, Buses In Odisha’s Twin Cities

Bhubaneswar: The Police Commissionerate clarified on Saturday that trucks and buses would be exempted from the odd-even rule for public transport vehicles in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack.

Earlier on Friday, police had notified the alternate-day rule as a precautionary measure to minimise the spread of coronavirus by lessening the number of vehicles on the roads.

However, DCP Traffic Sagarika Nath tweeted on Saturday that taxis and autos for hire have been regulated to make sure that they are on road on alternate days. But this order does not apply to trucks and buses which is being rumoured.

Besides, the rule will also not apply to personal vehicles or those used for emergency or other purposes.
