Punjab CM to Launch Key Transport Infrastructure Project

Описание: Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif is set to fulfill her promise to the people of Faisalabad with the groundbreaking of a major transport project, the Orange Line Metro/Tram service. Covering a 20-kilometer route from Faisal Town Jaranwala Road to Tahirpura Jhang Road, the project will feature 27 metro buses or two trams, providing daily convenience to thousands of passengers and significantly improving urban transportation in the city.
During a recent meeting presided over by Member Punjab Mass Transit Authority Captain Zahid Saeed (retd) and Commissioner Faisalabad Raja Jahangir Anwar, officials shared detailed updates on the project. The approved PC-1 plan includes 22 stations, two depots, and six U-turns along the Orange Line route. Departments including WASA, FESCO, Sui Gas, PHA, Municipal Corporation, and Traffic Police were urged to promptly transfer utility services according to the planned alignment to avoid delays in project execution.
Authorities also emphasized the need to inform residents of communities along the route about temporary service disruptions during utility transfers. A follow-up meeting is scheduled next week to finalize timelines for the utility relocation, ensuring the project progresses smoothly. Once operational, the Orange Line Metro/Tram will be a major milestone in Faisalabad’s urban transport development.
