Karachi: Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has approved more than PKR 10 billion for a series of infrastructure development projects aimed at improving roads, traffic management, and urban mobility in Karachi.
The approval was granted during a high-level meeting on Karachi’s mega development initiatives, where ten major projects focused on traffic flow, road rehabilitation, and transport system upgrades were reviewed.
According to an official statement from the Chief Minister’s House, the approved funding will be used to strengthen the city’s core infrastructure, with directives issued to ensure timely completion of ongoing and planned schemes.
During the briefing, Karachi Mayor Murtaza Wahab presented details of an alternative traffic corridor project from Azeempura to Landhi Murtaza Chowrangi. The proposed PKR 582 million project is designed to ease congestion by diverting traffic towards Shahrah-e-Bhutto and reducing pressure on residential areas.
The chief minister directed the Local Government Department to submit the project for formal approval without delay, emphasizing the need for coordinated planning and swift execution of development work.
Murad Ali Shah stressed that Karachi’s growing population and rising traffic demands require urgent infrastructure upgrades and integrated urban planning to improve daily commuting conditions and long-term mobility.
