SITE Association of Industry Chairman Jawed Bilwani has urged Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah to immediately complete the remaining development work on the Lyari Expressway to ease traffic congestion in the SITE area.
“Though construction work on the Lyari Expressway was completed 67%, it had been stopped about five years ago,” said Bilwani, who represents one of the biggest industrial zones in Karachi. “We hope that the work will be completed at the earliest.”
Owing to the partial development, there have been huge traffic congestions in and around the expressway.
“In view of this situation, we ask the government that the expressway going from Hasan Square towards Mauripur be made available for traffic from Mauripur towards Hasan Square (opposite direction) for two hours in the evening only for private cars, which will greatly ease the traffic congestion.”

Hope the PML-N govt. make the project complete in time.
All illegal encroachments should be immediately cleared. It is all much ado about nothing. Just like some political parties created before the start of operation against taliban.
