All roads leading to the supermarket seem to have been either barricaded or set aside for a parking facility for employees of the supermarket. Meanwhile, the traffic police appear to have failed to manage the flow of heavy traffic in the vicinity.

The store management has provided a makeshift parking arrangement inside the Lyari riverbed but the authorities have asked it to either silt the river or prepare to be shut down.
