Punjab Caretaker Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi conducted an extensive visit to inspect the progress of the Sialkot Motorway, a project crucial for linking Gujranwala with Lahore.<\/p>\n

Accompanied by a team, Chief Minister Naqvi traversed the 15.2 km stretch from Benazir Chowk to Wahandu in an ordinary vehicle, meticulously examining the earthwork and stone-laying advancements, as well as under-construction bridges along the route. Notably, approximately 90 percent of the earthwork for the 15.2 km link road has been accomplished, with ongoing stone-laying efforts at various points, alongside vigorous construction of bridges and subways. This motorway will establish a direct connection between Lahore and Sialkot, extending further to Gujranwala through a two-lane road from the Wahandu Interchange to Benazir Chowk.<\/p>\n

Chief Minister Naqvi expressed contentment at the commendable pace of work and extended congratulations to the Frontier Works Organization (FWO) project director and the dedicated team. He also announced plans for a commercial area development along this vital link road, emphasizing that the project\u2019s completion will yield substantial long-term fuel savings. Mohsin Naqvi issued crucial directives to the concerned authorities, underscoring the need for adherence to the established timeline. Once finished, the journey from Gujranwala to Lahore is anticipated to be shortened to a mere 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

During the briefing, it was highlighted that the 15.2 km dual carriageway will provide excellent access to the motorway, and all available resources are being utilized to ensure timely completion. The transfer of all services from the Right of Way has already been successfully executed. Secretary of Communication & Works, along with FWO Project Director Colonel Imran Arshad, provided the chief minister with a detailed progress report. The occasion was attended by officials from the FWO, demonstrating collective dedication towards the successful realization of this vital infrastructure project. Moreover, Arshad Nadeem, the silver medalist in the World Javelin Championship, called on Punjab Caretaker Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi at his office on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The CM lauded his achievement and presented Arshad Nadeem with a Rs.3 million cheque in recognition of his remarkable feat.<\/p>\n
