Federal Minister for Planning Ahsan Iqbal has promised to start the Hyderabad-Sukkur Motorway this year, as reported by national media.
According to a report on Monday, Federal Minister Ahsan Iqbal, while addressing a press conference at the Pakistan Business Council in Karachi, said that work on the Hyderabad-Sukkur Highway will begin this year and will be completed in three years, while the Karachi-Hyderabad Motorway will be constructed on a new route.
He stated that the PTI government had halted the Sukkur-Hyderabad Motorway, which has now doubled the cost. Ahsan Iqbal said a project worth 5 billion rupees has been approved for Karachi’s SITE area, and 100% funding is being provided for the Rs. 125 billion K-IV project.
