GAM Campaign to Reclaim Sidewalks, Ease Congestion in Progress

Amman: The Greater Amman Municipality (GAM) on Monday forged ahead with a campaign to remove illegal obstacles and encroachments from public streets and sidewalks to improve traffic flow and pedestrian mobility.

According to Jordan News Agency, unpermitted barriers restrict street capacity, causing bottlenecks and traffic congestion across the capital, GAM explained.

The effort aims to reclaim public spaces, boost road capacity, and ensure pedestrian safety, said city officials, adding that clearing such encroachments will also restore Amman's aesthetic.
