A major infrastructure milestone is on the horizon for Rawalpindi, as the much-anticipated New Rs2.3 billion Flyover on Adiala Road enters its final phase of construction. With 98% of the project already completed, authorities are on track to open the flyover by June 3, 2025, just in time for Eid-ul-Adha. This new corridor aims to significantly reduce traffic congestion and ease movement during one of the busiest periods of the year.
Timely Progress and Leadership Oversight
Commissioner Aamir Khattak, accompanied by Additional Deputy Commissioner General Hassaan Tariq and engineers from the Communication and Works Department, recently visited the construction site to monitor progress. Officials were briefed that the remaining tasks are progressing as scheduled, and every effort is being made to meet the target deadline.
Commissioner Khattak emphasized the importance of timely completion and maintaining high construction quality, public transparency, and worker safety. He stated that the administration is focused on ensuring infrastructure projects across Rawalpindi proceed efficiently, without unnecessary delays.
Strategic Impact on Traffic Flow
Named after former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, the flyover is poised to become a critical traffic artery along Adiala Road, one of Rawalpindi’s busiest routes. Once operational, it is expected to dramatically streamline traffic, offering long-term relief to daily commuters and residents alike.
Commitment to Worker Welfare
During the site inspection, Commissioner Khattak engaged directly with labourers and the project contractor, reminding them to prioritize safety protocols and maintain optimal working conditions. He warned that negligence or delays would not be tolerated, highlighting the district administration’s zero-tolerance approach to inefficiency.
A Step Toward a Modern Rawalpindi
The nearing completion of the New Adiala Road Flyover marks a visible transformation in Rawalpindi’s urban landscape. It stands not only as a symbol of infrastructure development but also of the provincial government’s commitment to accelerated, people-focused urban growth.
As the city prepares for Eid-ul-Adha, this Rs2.3B investment promises to deliver more than just a smoother commute—it reflects a future-ready Rawalpindi dedicated to solving its traffic woes with modern solutions.
