In a bid to promote tourism in the Potohar region, the Punjab government has approved provision of two double-decker buses to Rawalpindi administration.
The bus service was to start in February-March but the project was delayed due to the coronavirus situation.

The project has been included in the Rawalpindi Annual Development Programme (ADB).
