In a move to facilitate travelers on the Lahore Ring Road, authorities have decided to build state-of-the-art rest areas at six designated locations.
According to the Ring Road Authority, the sites will be offered on lease to financially stable individuals and companies. The authority has completed work on the lease agreement draft and estimated monthly revenue.
Offers will soon be invited for leasing the six locations, each covering a minimum of 4.5 kanal and a maximum of 5 kanal. Each site will feature a petrol station, tuck shop, mosque, restrooms, and food points.
The six selected locations include Adda Plot, Halloki, Kamahan, opposite the airport, and Mehmood Booti.
The Ring Road Authority expects to generate over Rs. 200 million in annual revenue from the successful leasing of these sites. Final work on the lease agreements is underway, and site selection has already been completed.

Who needs a rest area on the ring road?
This is a fantastic project by the RRA, if completed on time to international standards, it will place Lahore among the top cities of the world.
I questioned same to RRA many years ago to facilitate road user, but they not responded, once a circular, highway whatever we call, such facility is the first and foremost but here all system is reverse it, but if they decided it’s a good news, thanks God at last they are going to work
I think it’s a nice idea for the convenience of the travelers.
I don t know, it seams kind of stupid to me. At most a person is on the road for half an hour…. And you need six service stations for that half hour trip. Just another way to make kickbacks I guess
