The City Traffic Police should focus its attention without delay on the Nugegoda, Karagampitiya, and Dehiwela 176 bus stop at Armour Street junction, Sri Sumanathissa Mawatha.

The Colombo Municipality had erected the 176 bus stop opposite premises No 49, but the 176 buses stop at the junction opposite premises No 19, which blocks the right of way for other vehicles coming from Jethavanaramaya road towards Panchikawatta and other 176 buses coming from Kotahena. When one or two 176 buses stop at the junction, it results in a traffic block.

When the 176 buses stop opposite premises No 19 and when the passengers start getting into the bus, the driver slowly moves the bus when the bus behind it, toots the horn. This is a danger to the passenger. The law enforcing officials appear to turn a blind eye to this.

The police should be deployed by 6.00 a.m daily at the colour lights opposite the Armour Street Police Guard Room, as the drivers of vehicles do not pay any attention to the red light signal, and when people cross the road. The drivers of these vehicles do not respect the red light and stop. I have noticed this on many occasions. The police should act quickly before innocent lives are lost due to irresponsible drivers.
