Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi visited the Jinnah Square underpass site on Murree Road and directed authorities to ensure the project is fully completed by the end of May.
During the visit, Capital Development Authority (CDA) Chairman Muhammad Ali Randhawa briefed the minister on the project’s progress. Naqvi inspected the ongoing construction and announced that the underpass is set to be officially inaugurated on May 22.
Despite ongoing rainfall in the region, the minister expressed satisfaction with both the pace and quality of the work. He instructed officials to include green spaces and high-quality landscaping around the underpass to enhance the area’s appearance.
Naqvi also visited a nearby bridge currently under construction to review its progress. In addition to project updates, the minister directed immediate removal of encroachments along the Expressway, stressing the need to clear illegal structures without delay.
He reiterated the government’s vision to turn Islamabad into a world-class city equipped with modern traffic infrastructure and urban facilities.
According to the project briefing, 75% of the underpass construction has been completed, and three out of four slip roads are already finished. Traffic flow has been partially restored for public convenience, and officials remain confident the remaining work will be completed on time.
