Kutcheri Chowk redesigning planned
Nespak has been appointed as the project consultant and adviser to make the design and feasibility of Kutchery Chowk said Rawalpindi Commissioner Muhammad Mehmood. Punjab government had decided to redesign the Kutchery Chowk to ease traffic flow and Nespak would soon start work on the design of the project. Earlier, a study was also conducted for remodelling the intersection for ending traffic congestion on Jhelum Road, Airport Road, The Mall and Rashid Minhas Road. However, it was rejected. The commissioner said that redesigning the intersection would improve the traffic flow on the main roads and save people from hours-long traffic jam that regularly occur in the area. The consultant would submit its technical views which would be sent to the Punjab Planning and Development Department for approval, he added.
