The Walled City of Lahore Authority (WCLA) has launched an electric carts service at the Lahore Fort for tourists under the sponsorship of the Punjab Tourism and Economic Growth Programme (PTEGP).
Initially 15 e-carts were given to the WCLA, out of which 10 are at the Lahore Fort and five are being used at Shalimar Gardens and Jahangir's Tomb.
The e-carts at Lahore Fort take the tourists to 12 stations set up in the area.
The service can be accessed with phone calls or a booking booth at the fort. There are three pick-up points at Roshnai Gate, Gurdwara Dera Sahib and the Picture Wall. A route has been designed and a pathway made.
Each cart goes across the Lahore Fort's track passing through prominent monuments like Akbari Gate, Alamgiri Gate, Shahi Hammam, Picture Wall and Ahata-e-Jahangiri, Deewan-e-Aam, Makatib Khana and Huzoori Bagh.
The fare is Rs100 per person for almost an hour-long tour of the fort. The tourists ,may hop on and off the carts during the tour.
