Punjab Transport Minister Bilal Akbar has said that the contract process for Lahore’s electric tram project has been completed and the procurement stage is currently underway.
Speaking to the media, he said residents would see the electric tram operating on Lahore’s roads during the next fiscal year.
The minister said an earlier plan required the development of a complete metro-style system for the project, but that plan has been deferred.
According to Bilal Akbar, no trees will be cut down for the electric tram project.
He said the proposed route will start from the Central Business District (CBD) and pass through Jail Road and Mall Road before ending at Istanbul Chowk.
