Work Begins on Two Rs. 5.8 Billion Flyovers in Peshawar

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Muhammad Sohail Afridi on Sunday broke ground on the Warsak Road and Palosi flyover projects, two major infrastructure developments under the Rs. 200 billion Peshawar Revitalization Plan aimed at improving the city’s transportation network.

The Warsak Road Flyover, part of Ring Road Phase II, will span approximately 800 meters and is being built at an estimated cost of Rs. 3.2 billion. Officials said it is the largest flyover project under the Peshawar Revitalization Plan and is expected to be completed within 180 days.

The Palosi Flyover will be constructed at an estimated cost of Rs. 2.6 billion. According to officials, the project will help reduce traffic congestion, improve road safety, and enhance traffic flow in surrounding areas. Both flyovers are key components of Ring Road Phase II and are expected to significantly strengthen Peshawar’s transportation infrastructure.

Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony, the chief minister said development work is continuing across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, describing the Peshawar Revitalization Plan as one of the provincial government’s flagship urban development initiatives. He said the government remains committed to transforming Peshawar, which serves as both the administrative capital and the face of the province.

The Rs. 200 billion Peshawar Revitalization Plan includes a series of infrastructure and urban development projects designed to improve mobility, reduce congestion, and upgrade public facilities across the provincial capital.
