Flyover opened for traffic

The minister stated that the Mosimiyat Flyover is now open for public use. He indicated that full access would be available within two days of the inauguration event.

Reasons for project delays

Memon explained that construction contracts were awarded two years ago before high inflation affected the country. Rising costs for dollars, cement, and petrol caused difficulties during the work period. He apologized to commuters for these unavoidable challenges facing the authorities.

Road completion timeline

Officials reported that work on the 2.7-kilometre University Road stretch will finish in about a month. A mixed lane has already been constructed on this section of the corridor. The Frontier Works Organisation faced several hurdles while laying K-IV augmentation lines.
