Karachi: The Green Line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) extension from Numaish Chowrangi to Municipal Park is expected to be completed during the current fiscal year, according to a news article from October 19.
During a surprise inspection of the ongoing project on October 17, Sindh Governor Syed Muhammad Nehal Hashmi reviewed construction progress along the 1.8-kilometre route and directed officials to accelerate work to facilitate commuters. The extension includes building stations along the route, and the federal government has released its allocated share of funding.
The extension will expand Karachi’s existing Green Line BRT network, giving commuters better access to public transport along the route from Numaish Chowrangi to Municipal Park, near Jama Cloth Market. During the visit, Governor Hashmi emphasised the need for continued investment in mass transit infrastructure to address the transportation needs of Karachi’s growing population.
