From there it comes to Drigh Road, Karsaz, Shaheed-e-Millat, Chanesar, Naval at Korangi Road, Karachi cant, DOCs, Karachi City, Tower. Finally it returns Wazir Mansion.

However, government plans new construction for an extension from Drigh Road to Jinnah terminal via Drigh Colony, Star Gate and Jinnah Terminal.

But Karachiites await action instead of empty statements.
