Rawalpindi’s infrastructure landscape is undergoing a significant transformation. Officials have confirmed that the construction phase for three crucial new underpasses at Qasim Market, Race Course, and Cheering Cross on Peshawar Road will commence by late November or early December.
This PKR 7.20 billion expansion is a vital component of the overarching PKR 14 billion Kachehri Chowk project, which already includes multiple flyovers and underpasses designed to overhaul traffic flow. Connecting major arteries like Jinnah Park Road and Mall Road, the entire project aims to deliver a fully operational, signal-free corridor between Kachehri Chowk and Motorway Chowk by the ambitious deadline of June 2026. With the C&W Department and FWO driving round-the-clock work, the city is racing to finalize this critical artery and bring permanent relief to its commuters.
