During the briefing, the technical team updated the CEO on key infrastructure milestones. The 4.3-kilometer-long, 250-foot-wide main circular road has nearly completed its water-bound and sub-base work, with asphalt laying expected to start by the end of this month. The main drainage system has also reached 85% completion, a development that officials described as critical for sustainable urban infrastructure.
The meeting also covered the traffic and transport master plan for the mega project. Once complete, NSIT City will be able to accommodate more than 2,000 vehicles, ensuring smooth traffic flow and convenience for IT firms, startups, and visitors.
Following the review, Amin toured the site to inspect ongoing work. He praised the dedication of the project teams and underscored the importance of meeting deadlines.
“NSIT City is not just a project—it is the future of Pakistan’s digital economy,” Amin said. “We are creating an ecosystem that will provide cutting-edge infrastructure for IT companies, entrepreneurs, and startups. The pace of development is encouraging, and I am confident NSIT City will soon emerge as a global hub for technology and business.”
