That many people come from the provinces to visit their relatives in the capital, Wazir called for preserving the aesthetic form of Cairo during these holidays. He asked the traffic directorate to ensure smooth traffic around mosques, cemeteries, tourist attractions, hotels and clubs, and tighten control of the entrances and exits of Cairo to prevent traffic jams.
