Islamabad: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) will set up a healthcare facility for the residents of Sector I-9/1, news sources reported on February 2. The new facility will serve the residents of Sectors I-9 and I-10.
According to reports, the CDA has budgeted PKR 66 million for the establishment and provision of medical facilities, including the employment of medical professionals and equipment, in order to meet the sector’s demands. The facility will be ready for patients in a few months.
Another people-friendly endeavour is the CDA’s decision to make Islamabad Pakistan’s first pedestrian-friendly metropolis, complete with official maps and improved signposts and markings. The decision was made following a meeting between Chairman CDA Amir Ali Ahmad and famous urban designer Dr Naveed Iftikhar. The conference resolved that the authority will improve pedestrian and walking spaces in the city, as well as improve land availability and utilisation. This will also involve the implementation of paid parking, which is slated for the end of March, as well as the introduction of buses.
