Rawalpindi: The Punjab government has secured approval for the revised PC-I of the Rawalpindi Ring Road project, with the estimated cost now set at Rs 32.9 billion, up from the previous Rs 26.9 billion. This approval was granted during a meeting of the Central Development Working Party (CDWP), marking a significant step forward in the project’s execution.
Kinza Murtaza, Director General of the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA), highlighted that substantial progress has been made on the project, including the commencement of girder work on the flyovers, a key milestone in the construction phase.
The 38.3-kilometer Ring Road will feature five interchanges at Banth, Chak Beli Khan, Adiala Road, Chakri Road, and Thallian. Once completed, the road is expected to alleviate traffic congestion in Rawalpindi and improve the overall transportation network.
Murtaza emphasized that the revised plan was developed to address the growing transportation demands of the region, aiming to improve mobility and ease traffic flow. The Ring Road project is an integral part of Rawalpindi’s broader infrastructure modernization efforts and is expected to provide significant benefits to local residents and commuters, while contributing to the region’s development.
