Govt approves expansion of Lahore-Sialkot motorway to three lanes

Minister for Communications Abdul Aleem Khan has said no future Motorway project will be constructed with fewer than three lanes on each side, totalling a six-lane configuration.

He was addressing a meeting of National Highway Authority in Islamabad today.

Directing NHA to expedite work on the Sialkot-Rawalpindi Motorway, he said its completion would significantly reduce the traffic burden on the M-2 and drastically improve the travel experience between Lahore and Islamabad.

The meeting decided to expand Lahore-Sialkot Motorway from two lanes to a three-lane facility.
