The Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) has extended its free scooty training programme for women until November 30, 2026. The decision follows an overwhelming response from women interested in learning scooter riding and improving their daily mobility.
Chief Traffic Officer Kainat Azhar Khan announced the extension to accommodate the growing number of applicants. She said the department had divided the programme into two phases to provide more women with an opportunity to participate.
Second Training Phase Begins November 16
The first phase of the programme runs from November 1 to November 15, while the second phase will continue from November 16 to November 30. Women who could not secure a place during the initial sessions can now receive free training in the extended phase.
Moreover, the initiative aims to help women develop practical riding skills and gain confidence when travelling independently. The programme also encourages safer commuting by providing participants with supervised riding experience.
Traffic Police Expands Women’s Empowerment Initiatives
Kainat Azhar Khan said the Islamabad Traffic Police remained committed to empowering women through practical initiatives. She added that the department would continue introducing similar programmes to promote independence and improve women’s mobility.
The initiative reflects growing efforts to make transportation more accessible for women across the federal capital. Furthermore, free scooty training can help students and working women reduce their dependence on public transport and other commuting arrangements.
With the extended deadline, more women now have an opportunity to benefit from the programme. The traffic police hopes to encourage greater participation in safe and independent travel through such initiatives.
