Rawalpindi: A Project Management Unit (PMU) was recently formed to oversee the development of the Rawalpindi Ring Road (RRR) project, a news source reported. As per the publication, the Rawalpindi Commissioner will be heading the subdivision for the project — with the venture estimated to be developed at a cost of PKR 57 billion.
Reportedly, the part of the ring road that is located within the limits of Rawalpindi is expected to be managed by the Rawalpindi Development Authority — with the authority also the project’s executive agency. On the other hand, the construction of the road’s part that is located in Islamabad will be overseen by the Capital Development Authority.
The RRR in Rawalpindi will connect with the GT Road (from the Radio Pakistan Building in Rawat) and Sangjani on the Lahore-Islamabad Motorway M-2. Similarly, the Islamabad Ring Road will link Sangani with Rawat via the Margalla Road.
The PMU formed for the RRR comprises of various members,
including a deputy project director, a procurement officer, and specialists to
look into the project’s infrastructural, environmental and social aspects.
