Lahore to Build Dozen Parking Plazas to Ease Traffic Jams; Full Details Here

Lahore, a busy city in Pakistan, is struggling with heavy traffic jams every day. These jams get worse during office hours. One major problem is the lack of parking spaces for cars and bikes.

To solve this issue, the Punjab government has announced plans to build new parking plazas. Over a dozen locations in Lahore have been chosen for these projects. The decision came after a high-level meeting led by top officials.

Chief Minister Punjab ordered departments to start construction quickly, especially in the most crowded areas. Officials said the first step – planning – is already done. But they will double-check all locations to make sure the plazas will work well.

The parking plazas will be built in busy spots like Mall Road Town Hall, Regal Chowk, Circular Road, Yateem Khana, Ferozpur Road, and Gulberg. These areas face severe parking shortages, causing traffic to slow down for hours.

This project is part of a bigger plan to fix Lahore’s traffic problems. With over 15 million people, the city needs better urban planning. The government hopes these plazas will make daily travel easier for residents and visitors.

Officials warned that construction might cause temporary delays. However, they promised the long-term benefits will reduce congestion. Citizens shared mixed reactions. Some praised the move, while others urged the government to also improve public transport.
