PESHAWAR:
Chief Minister Pervez Khattak has directed authorities to initiate designing the proposed dual carriageway link road from Chamkani to Badabher.
The officials at the meeting told Khattak the proposed project was costing Rs4 billion and would improve connectivity to the densely populated areas of Peshawar, including Hazar Khwani, Surizai Bala, Phandu Payan and Badabher. The road would be designed through a corridor, linking the national road grid connecting N-5,N-1, N-55 and Ring Road. Officials added the proposed link road would cater to traffic problems, reduce travel times and would facilitate free flow of heavy vehicles.
