In Islamabad Capital Territory, traffic flow remains smooth on the Islamabad Expressway and Srinagar Highway. However, partial access restrictions continue within the Red Zone, with entry currently permitted only through Margalla Road and the Marriott Corridor. Ongoing construction at the Margalla Enclave Underpass on Park Road continues to cause traffic diversions and reduced speeds on adjacent routes. Commuters are advised to utilise alternate routes via China Chowk, Press Club Road, Aga Khan Road, Margalla Road, and Shahrah-e-Dastoor. In Rawalpindi District, traffic movement remains normal on The Mall, airport-bound routes, and other major road networks, with no traffic disruptions, protest activity, or scheduled demonstrations reported at the time of reporting. Moreover, in Murree District, Section 144 has been imposed till 05 July 2026, prohibiting access to streams, waterfalls, and other water bodies, while bathing and swimming at dams and recreational water sites have also been banned as a precautionary measure. All major roads and intersections across the district remain operational. Additionally, airspace will be temporarily restricted across parts of southern and central Pakistan from 09–10 June 2026 due to a scheduled missile test. Minor flight schedule adjustments and operational delays may be observed during the restriction period.

Additionally, sewerage work from Lakshmi Chowk to Brenth Road, coupled with construction activity near Nila Gumbad and the King Edward Medical University area, continues to slow traffic movement on adjoining roads.
