Rawalpindi: Rawalpindi Commissioner Captain (retired) Muhammad Mehmood has revealed that the value of land situated in economic zones along the Rawalpindi Ring Road (RRR) is seen to appreciate, a news source reported on Friday. The commissioner shared this information during a workshop held in Rawalpindi Arts Council with traders, transporters and members of business community in attendance.
Addressing the attendees, the commissioner said that the project will change the face of Rawalpindi once it is completed (tentatively) by December 2023. After the road opens to traffic, heavy vehicles will be banned from entering the city, he said.
He further stated that a total eight economic zones will be established along the RRR and that all wholesale markets, bus stands, warehouses and factories will be relocated to the project route. This will make the city’s road less crowded. Mehmood specifically mentioned that members of the business community will be allowed to purchase land in these economic zones as per their needs. ‘The government will ensure road access, and water, gas and electricity supply to these zones’, he said.
During the same session, Commissioner Mehmood also addressed questions of the members representing Rawalpindi Goods Association, transporters, traders association, furniture market, wholesalers, and the Rawalpindi Chambers of Commerce and Industry (RCCI).
