Sections of major motorways in Punjab were closed to traffic on Thursday as dense fog blanketed the region, significantly reducing visibility. The Motorway Police announced the closure of the M-2 motorway from Lahore to Hiran Minar and the M-3 motorway from Lahore to Jaranwala due to hazardous weather conditions.

A spokesperson for the motorway police explained that the closures were implemented to ensure public safety. Drivers were urged to travel during daylight hours to avoid risks associated with poor visibility. The spokesperson also advised motorists to refrain from speeding and to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front to prevent accidents.

Meanwhile, the Pakistan Meteorological Department forecasted that the minimum temperature in Lahore would drop to 5°C, with a maximum of 19°C. The humidity level in the air was recorded at 85%, and winds were reported at a speed of 8 km per hour.
