Lyari Expressway

Letter August 01, 2015
The Lyari Expressway from Mauripur to Sohrab Goth should be open between 5pm and 9pm, Monday through Friday

KARACHI: On behalf of Karachi’s commuters, I would like to inform our city planners that we welcome their decision to keep the Lyari Expressway open from 4pm to 8pm from Mauripur to Sohrab Goth. However, it is requested that the timings during which the Lyari Expressway is open be prolonged until the development of the second half of the road is completed. It takes commuters between 90 minutes and two hours to reach home by passing through the city, while it takes only 25 minutes using the Lyari Expressway.

The Lyari Expressway from Mauripur to Sohrab Goth should be open between 5pm and 9pm, Monday through Friday. This will give much-needed relief to the city’s inner roads.
