Lebanon circulation: a daily nightmare

With the end-of-the-year holiday fat approaching, the circulation in Beirut seems to be more and more difficult. The traffic seems to upset more and more Lebanese citizens, exhausted by delay and gas expenses.

Some Lebanese NGOs are being more and more desperate about the current situation. The non-respect of circulation code, speed excess, insults and all other pleasure offered to drivers in Lebanon are getting on citizen’s nerves.

Kunhadi is a Lebanese NGO that publishes monthly and annual Red Cross’s statistics on car accidents. By doing that, it contributes to a national awareness campaign aiming at traffic security improvement. Kunhadi has already listed 9 168 car accident in 2009, an improvement compared to the 10 630 car accidents registered in 2008.

Many economists think that the solution is to improve public transportation. The investment could facilitate traffic and diminish transportation cost; the minister of Transportation should reveal a solution to this effect.

General brigadier Joseph Doueihi in charge of traffic regulation in Lebanon explains that the road situation should be worsening until the end of the year. He affirms that 330 officers are being placed in Beirut’s streets to help manage the circulation.

With the new measure of circulation put in place by the Lebanese government, like traffic lights, electricity is nevertheless absent in a lot of street which make the conductors driving in the dark.

Hariri’s new government affirmed that it will search for an urgent solution to put an end to this daily nightmare lived and relived by Lebanese citizen patiently blocked during the holiday season.
