Under this project, the KMC is working on four major roads leading up to Karachi Port. The roads that are currently being enhanced include Mauripur Road, Mai Kolachi Road, West Wharf Road, and the MT Khan Road.
Moreover, Karachi Administrator Laeeq Ahmed has issued instructions for the officials to remove flags, banners and other advertising materials from the poles along the Mauripur and West Wharf roads. He asked workers to ensure that all street lights on the roads are in proper working order. He asked for diversions to be marked and smooth traffic flow to be secured on these roads – in spite of the development work underway.
