“Extending the Sialkkot-Kharian Motorway to Rawalpindi would be a game-changer infrastructure project for the region, ensuring efficient transit of goods and services.”

The administration has started 27 new road projects totaling 1,753 kilometres, he was told. It’s worth noting that a four-lane road is being built at Rs170 million per kilometre, compared to Rs370 million per kilometre during the previous administration’s time.
