CDA to Widen Park Road From Rawal Chowk to Taramri Chowk in Islamabad
Islamabad: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) will start construction on the expansion on Park Road. The most recent tweet from Capt. (Retd.) Muhammad Usman Younis, Chief Commissioner of Islamabad, states that CDA will widen Park Road by adding additional lanes over a distance of 7.5 kilometres between Rawal Chowk and Taramri Chowk.
The project, he continued, will start in the third week of October 2022 and cost Rs. 1.95 billion and will be completed in about four months. The 7th Avenue flyover is now accessible to the general public according to the Capital Development Authority. The Islamabad Capital Police’s official Twitter account provided the update.
The project’s initial due date was in October 2022. Later, the administration chose to make the route operational on August 14, 2022. But the constant rain forced us to abandon such preparations.
The flyover avoids the traffic signal that had previously been put in place, making it easier for people to get to and from Rawalpindi, Bhara Kahu, Murree, and other locations inside Islamabad.
It’s important to note that even though Rawal Chowk Interchange is still unfinished, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif inaugurated the overhead bridge.
A completion date for the project of 2021 has already been missed by the previous administration. The PTI-led government once again missed the second deadline in February 2022.
PM Shehbaz Sharif pledged that the interchange will be ready for public usage by the end of July 2022, with the inauguration taking place in August 2022, following the ouster of the previous PM Imran Khan. Despite the fact that the bridge has been opened, the ongoing renovation continues to inconvenience people who regularly use Park Road.
