The Karachi Metropolitan Corporation on Monday unveiled a citywide infrastructure rehabilitation plan focused on upgrading roads and strengthening municipal services.
Karachi Mayor Murtaza Wahab chaired a meeting of the KMC Engineering Department where officials finalized policy directions and timelines to accelerate development work. According to a statement issued after the session, the corporation will undertake large-scale rehabilitation of roads across all districts.
In addition to roads under KMC’s administrative control, the authority has decided to repair 183 more roads to enhance connectivity and ease traffic movement. Officials said work will prioritize major and heavily used arteries while ensuring alternative routes remain open to minimize disruption for commuters.
The mayor directed departments to complete all formalities on priority and issue tenders before Eid so construction can begin without delay. He instructed relevant wings to maintain consistent progress in line with the approved scope of work.
As part of the plan, Jahangir Road will shift to a solar-powered street lighting system. Municipal Commissioner Samira Hussain briefed participants on the criteria used to select roads in different districts.
During the meeting, the mayor also ordered improvements in streetlight management alongside road repairs to ensure safer and better illuminated roads throughout the city.
Please can you give the name of ” Hundred of Roads” repaired?
Now Murtaza Wahab’s mission is to convert Karachi into village by changing asphalt roads to bricks roads, they’re not smooth, they aren’t strong.
Now they are turning Jahangir road smiler to village uneven road. No where in the world main roads are made by bricks, everywhere bricks used on footpaths, parks walk ways.
Not a PPP fan at all but you do you have any idea about the pavored roads? go study about it. They are way stronger than a carpetted asphalt road. They are expensive to build but cheaper to maintain. They are very efficient to maintain the subsoil water level after rains.
Sirf ye bata do shaheed millat expressway kis ke kehne per banaya hae
Karachi mAh kis jaga hum ne tu koi tabdeli nai daki, surf iqra university Wala road bana hai.
Not Hundreds of roads, it is because they wants to eat hundreds of millions.
Well, its KMC’s duty… and thats exactly what their job is… not a favor. It was overdue since past 15 odd years of waiting. Nothing special at all.
Thay just post to show that we are thay never do work I face daily to much traffic because of darty damage Roads
Karachi is already a victim of no planning and ad-hoc patchwork repair……and now I’m certain it will get worse. Our mayor is clueless on what needs to be done.
Instead of doing cosmetic temporary work ( which has ALWAYS been the case ). ….may I suggest that the mayor simply ENSURE GARBAGE IS CLEARED EVERY DAY and roads swept clean….. Karachi would look and feel much better.
