Everything to Know About Karachi Yellow Line BRT Project – Check Fares & Route

The Yellow Line BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is one of Karachi’s most important upcoming public transport projects. Set to be completed by September 2025, the project is being developed by the Sindh Mass Transit Authority and funded by the World Bank.

Why Karachi Needs the Yellow Line

Karachi is one of the world’s largest and most populated cities. Its total urban area spreads over 1,500 square kilometers. Because of this, the city faces serious problems like:

• Heavy traffic congestion

• Long travel times

• Poor air quality

• High number of road accidents

Although the Green Line BRT was a big step forward, Karachi’s public transport system still remains disconnected and insufficient.

Route Details

The Yellow Line BRT corridor will cover 21 kilometers. It will start at Dawood Chowrangi and end at Numaish Chowrangi, passing through:

• Korangi Road

• Shahrah-e-Faisal

• Shahrah-e-Quaideen

This line will mostly benefit the people living in Landhi and Korangi, as well as workers in the Port Qasim Industrial Area.

Eco-Friendly Electric Buses

The Yellow Line project will use electric buses powered by solar energy. These buses are designed to:

• Reduce pollution

• Cut down fuel costs

• Support climate action

• Promote sustainable development in Karachi

The system is expected to serve around 300,000 passengers daily.

Key Benefits

• Faster and safer commuting

• Lower carbon emissions

• Less traffic on busy roads

• Reliable transport for industrial workers

• Greener and cleaner city environment
