Civil society alliance opposes Yellow Line project in Lahore

A coalition of environmental experts, architects, civil society organisations and citizen groups spearheaded by the Lahore Conservation Society (LCS) has opposed the proposed Yellow Line Metro Train project in the city.

The alliance has sent a letter to Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, warning that the project is environmentally damaging, economically unviable, and misaligned with the city's transportation needs.

The signatories include World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), Institute of Architects Pakistan (IAP), Pakistan Council of Architects and Town Planners (PCATP), HRCP, architect Yasmeen Lari, and urban planner Arif Hasan.
