Chandni Chowk flyover will be completed in March
RAWALPINDI - The Chandni Chowk flyover review committee was informed on Monday that 40 percent of the flyover’s construction had been completed and it would be open to the public by March 13. The meeting, chaired by MNA Muhammad Hanif Abbasi, was held at the Chief Commissioner office. The chair directed the contractor to stop the Chandni Chowk traffic police post reconstruction until the project design was approved.
During the meeting it was decided that two pedestrian bridges would be constructed to cross the Murree Road and connect with the flyover. One of these bridges would be connected to the Benazir Bhutto Shaheed Hospital (BBH) and the other to Rehmanabad Chowk. The land of two petrol pumps situated adjacent to the BBH would be released after 12th January and would also be used for construction. Abbasi also directed the contractor to level both sides of the road adjacent to the flyover to ensure smooth traffic flow and to avoid any inconvenience to the commuters. The Rawalpindi Commissioner Zahid Saeed directed WAPDA authorities to remove electric poles from both sides of the construction site. The WAPDA authorities informed that most of the poles had been shifted while the rest would be moved by January 18.
The Commissioner also directed the Rawalpindi Development Authority to install the pedestrian bridge, removed from BBH, near Gulshan Daden Khan on Murree Road.
Abbasi also appealed to the citizens to use alternate routes to avoid inconvenience. The meeting was attended by the Rawalpindi commissioner and other officers concerned.
