The construction of a modern jogging and cycling track in Hayatabad, Peshawar's upscale residential area, has been completed and is set to open to the public later this month.
Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister, Ali Amin Gandapur, will formally inaugurate the facility.
The project, developed under the Peshawar Uplift Program Phase II, was overseen by Commissioner Peshawar Division, Riaz Khan Mehsud. The newly completed Sections A and B of the track represent the region's first modern facility designed to meet international standards for recreational infrastructure.
Mehsud visited the site on Sunday and conducted a trial walk alongside project engineers to assess the final touches.
The track stretches six kilometers along the Hayatabad Stream and features rest areas at every kilometer. Each rest stop is equipped with open-air gym equipment, promoting physical fitness and well-being.
Additional amenities include washrooms, tuck shops, and other health-oriented facilities.
The 20-foot-wide track is flanked by 5-foot-wide green belts on both sides, adorned with tall trees and ornamental plants to enhance the aesthetic and environmental appeal.
Construction of the remaining two sections is progressing swiftly, with over 70 per cent of the work already completed.
