Sohawa – Chakwal road near completion
National Logistics Cell (NLC) is giving final touches to Sohawa – Chakwal dual carriageway that will not only significantly reduce the travel time between the two towns but also give a huge fillip to socio-economic activities in the region. The project has been completed despite numerous impediments like slow process of land acquisition and shifting of utilities by concerned departments which caused intermittent delays in execution of construction work. Notwithstanding challenges, every possible effort has been made by NLC to ensure quality of work. The 63-kilometre road has been constructed in a way to ensure maximum comfort and safety for commuters of the region. It will take 90 minutes to travel between Sohawa and Chakwal, which was an earlier two-and-a-half hour.
