The Sindh government authorities have taken down 1300 billboards in Karachi due to safety concerns in the current weather. Not only do these billboards cause a mess on the landscape visually, but they are also a cause of major clutter and accidents in Karachi.
According to a recent report by Media Track, there are around 4500 billboards and signboards across the metropolis city of Karachi. This has been considered as a very vast amount and several of these billboards are placed wrongly in places where it can be very hazardous to the safety of the citizens.
