Modern Infrastructure: Railways to develop parking lots

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Railways will develop modern parking sites outside railway stations and vacant railway land near markets to increase revenue for the department. “These parking places will not only facilitate the passengers but also provide parking facilities to the citizens of the concerned city,” official sources told APP on Monday. Initially, they said the parking sites would be made for two to three years that would be helpful in increasing income for Pakistan Railways. In this regard Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique had directed the concerned authorities to set up projects of international standard, they added. The sources said that they were also directed to upgrade the existing parking system of Pakistan Railways in different railway stations across the country.
