Lahore: The Lahore Development Authority (LDA) recently announced its decision to initiate the construction of the Shahkam Flyover after the upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr holidays, according to a news story published on May 4.
In this regard, the LDA has requested the traffic police to temporarily shut down the Canal Bank Road. Reportedly, the traffic police have already approved the LDA’s request to shut down the road facility for seven months.
In order to facilitate traffic during the construction period, an alternate traffic plan has already been finalised. As per the details available, three alternate routes have been finalised to facilitate commuters of Mohlanwal Road, Defence Road and Canal Bank Road.
