Construction work has started on three new underpasses along Peshawar Road at an estimated cost of Rs. 8.359 billion following the completion of the Kutchery Chowk infrastructure project in Rawalpindi.
According to officials, the new underpasses will be built at Qasim Market Chowk, Qabristan Chowk, and Charing Cross Chowk. Sources said the Qasim Market underpass is estimated to cost Rs. 3.091 billion, while the Qabristan Chowk and Charing Cross Chowk underpasses are expected to cost Rs. 2.679 billion and Rs. 2.588 billion respectively.
Authorities said more than 80 percent of utility relocation work has already been completed, while temporary alternative routes are also being constructed. The three underpasses are expected to be completed within around three months.
The development comes after the completion of the Kutchery Chowk project, now renamed Marka-e-Haq Square, which was completed at a revised cost of nearly Rs. 19 billion compared to the original estimate of Rs. 13.334 billion.
Sources also said a proposal is under consideration to construct a flyover at Ammar Shaheed Chowk at an estimated cost of Rs. 3.45 billion.

Ya Allah help us and let us get rid of this evil govt. AMEN.
Wats Evil u talkin about?🤣😂
The evol is already out of picture...the indrastruct is awesome...hats off to punhab government..
The Punjab government is doing a great job on infrastructure development. In the short term, the citizens are facing problems but in the long term, they will get a lot of convenience. For the first time, it has been seen that the work has been done in an organized manner and temporary alternative tracks are being built first and the problem of severe traffic jams has also been very rare. The work done by the Punjab government to improve the road network, modern public transport facilities and health facilities is truly commendable.
I request authorities to kindly consider a development project at Tarnol, about 3 km. from 26 no chongi. This is one of the most busiest area. A railway track on the road is main hurdle for smooth flow of traffic.
Tarnol falls within the limits of Islamabad, not Punjab. Soon, several new bridges will be built on Margalla Road in Islamabad.
Mashallah this government Zinda Baad. May Allah bless you all
Under CM Rawalpindi is transforming itself to new urban out look.The old GT road after Shershah Souri CM Punjab giving it a new modern looking shape in record short period of time.
It's been over a month now
Such a narrow sighted approach of form 47 government and their handlers, instead of focusing on human development they mere create avenues to plunder the already rotten nation. Inflation is sky rocketing but they are busy in face saving. Mere infrastructure can not help bring development in Pakistan, rather an enlightened and well literate nation can take care of the assets of Pakistan. Water shortage is the most severe challenge in the twin cities but who tells these goons, who are in acute nepotism and ruining the whole country. May Almighty Allah be our saviour. Ameen
Sick minded people, never happy for the progress or facilitation for the General public
Irrespective of our association of any party, we must learn to appreciate the job done for community. Infrastructure usage is by every citizen. KPK is launching peshawar DI Khan motorway on PPP ( private partner) it will reduce running hour from 8 to 2 hrs.
Please hoe form 45 govt human development performance in kpk
Kindly give attention to a common person and think about their difficulties of price hike, petrol price and taxation system
Government is taking imf money for these infrastructure and gave contract to FWO and NLC on very high cost, Shame on Government and FWO/NLC
