Thank you Nasir sahab, I will have a look
@ Imtiaz Bhai
Single Bid stuff is primarily granted to corporates having exclusive capabilities for extreme specilaised jobs such as Defence/Security, Mining/Exploration etc. Etc.
Yes, They have handed over it to FWo for the security & Defence reasons as MA will pass by AHQ, New GHQ, & Naval HQ. I oftenly go there & i know there is very strict security in that area. One who can enter E-9 doesnt means he can enter AHQ area. Only few people having especial entery passes & permissions can go there. & This MA is passing just near to it. They will never let anyone to construct a road from there. So govt has to hand it over to Ministry of defence ( FWO).
The specific area passing through all these Head Quarters is kept in Phase 2. Which i think will never be constructed. & islamabadians will have to utilize Phase 1 only i.e. Gt road to E-11 to Main Margallah Road to constitution avenue To Bhara Kahu or Satra Meel. Forget Phase 2 from E-11 to GHQ, AHQ, NHQ & Constitution avenue.
CDA mentioned on Its facebook page about the mobilization of FWO Machinery on Margallah avenue yesterday. The work is going to start now. The post mentiones with pictures that:
Mobilization of machinery by FWO for execution of Margalla Avenue Phase-I (Sangjani to sector D-12). Work for construction of Margalla Avenue (Phase I & II) has recently been awarded to FWO (Frontier Works Organization). Work on Phase II (from Khayaban-e-Iqbal to Bharakahu Area) will also be starting in coming weeks.
@Humayyun,
Looking at the wholesale corruption, mismanagement and then lame cover up through shady inquiries, I have little believe that Margalla Avenue will ever be completed by this utterly incompetemt and corrupt Niazi sarkar.
So until traffic starts flowing on MA, I would not count on it.
As brother Ilyas said, INNNN sey na ho paye ga.
- peace

@Ilyas dear,
Hahahahahhahaha (ROLF)
I am still laughing on your composition of ONNNNNN.
You made my day brother. Khush raho. So it means my teaser worked. Next time I will use it to exchange greetings. Howzzat.
سوچتا ہوں دوستوں پر مقدمہ کر دوں
اسی بہانے تاریخوں پر ملاقات تو ہو گی
Salam.
Isloo 1 bubba,
I am happy that i made your day....... :)
Your Urdu verse is as Fantastic as like the tea that was offered(by: Raat ki tareeki ka faida utata howa,dushman na watni aziz shib per hamla kiya ha) to Abhinandan... :)
No seriously, let's hope you'll not need a teaser or "muqadma" to grace the forum with your presence. This place is so deserted that it haunts.
Just saw few pictures shared by someone of FWO machinery moveing for MA sangjani to D-12 section
i hope it will not disaapoint us this time
A more detailed update on MA construction can be found in this news article, which says the work likely to start in 6 months time. So keep your fingers crossed folks. This will be a true game changer.

Isloo 1 of ours!!,
If you read this article critically, it has been written to attract readers attention and nothing credible has been told in the body of the article regarding 6 monthe...... It is just my opinion.....
Any how it really good news for whole zone-2.Let's see hope for best.

ISLAMABAD: The Senate was informed on Friday that toll plazas on motorways had been ‘handed over’ to the **Frontier Works Organisation (FWO).
During the question hour, the government disclosed that toll plazas on all motorways in the country had been let out to the **FWO****** while toll plazas on the GT road had been let out to private contractors through a bidding process.
This was stated by Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Shiekh Aftab Ahmad in reply to a supplementary question by PPP Senator Farhatullah Babar, who asked for details about toll plaza rented out to the FWO and its terms and conditions.
The minister stated that the toll collection on motorways had been entrusted to the FWO under an arrangement. Later, talking to the media, Babar said that doling out of lucrative contracts ‘under *********undisclosed arrangements’ to the FWO********** was an important issue.

Isn't it self explanatory for even the dummies:

Dear Ilyas bro,
Thanks for sharing the update on MA. Looks like it is actually going to happen, and if it does, it will dominate property market for many months. Anyone currently holding investment along MA route and Zone 2 is going to multiply at least 2-3 fold when traffic hits the road.
Zone 2 walo, mazay karo.
Yes Isloo1 & the only 1, The joint survey means the project has not been awarded lump sum fixed price contract to FWO and is BOQ(Bill of Quantities) based....
We are lucky, We missed one train and it is the third train Sohail Khan has been missing and waiting for driver-less TESLA to hit Paki roads..... :)
Good news. Well after eid real a 5 marla plot saw a further rise of 5 lacs. And im damn sure on the completion of MA a 5 marla plot will touch 1 crore price.
Ilyas & Humayyun bros,
B-17 will be new E-11. Mark my words.
