The construction of this bridge helped authorities find out that traffic from Ferozpur Road was not the main culprit in chocking Kalma Chowk. Good news is that the underpass will lead a major chunk of traffic towards Barkat Market without clogging Kalma Chowk. The robust construction work on the busiest four-way of Lahore suggests that the underpass will soon be open for traffic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Model Town underpass<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ferozpur Road has serious issues because the traffic here is very nasty. Addressing the traffic issues here mean reducing travelling distance and hassle for more than a million people who use this route daily. The roads linking major colonies located around Ferozpur Road need to be accessible because real estate value of property in this part of Lahore depends largely on it. With construction of Model Town underpass, Ferozpur Road will breathe more easily.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being the capital of Punjab and home to many important offices, Lahore receives a lot of attention.
