Traffic Chaos in Khouribga After Bus Breakdown, Citizens Criticize Lack of Intervention
This morning, the city of Khouribga experienced significant traffic chaos after one of the urban transport buses from the Al-Zahra company halted in the middle of the road for over an hour and a half, paralyzing traffic and disrupting citizens’ daily activities without any notable intervention from the concerned authorities. According to eyewitnesses, the bus stopped abruptly at one of the main traffic arteries, while responsible entities and technical services remained completely absent. Had it not been for the vigilance of traffic police, who worked tirelessly for over an hour and a half to minimize the impact on citizens, the situation could have escalated further.
This incident brings to light numerous criticisms regarding the management of the urban transport project in Khouribga, where bus breakdowns and delays have become a daily occurrence, frustrating residents, especially in light of previous promises to improve service quality and enhance the transport fleet. Local observers believe this event highlights significant gaps in the sector’s management and the lack of strict oversight, urging immediate intervention from the local council and responsible authorities to reassess the performance of the operating company and implement effective measures to ensure the normal running of traffic and uphold citizens’ dignity.
The pressing question remains: How long will this negligence in the urban transport sector in Khouribga continue? And when will the responsible authorities take accountability to ensure a service worthy of a city of Khouribga’s size?
