Signal-Free Walton Road Project: Tackling 18-Kilometer Infrastructure and Drainage Issues

A comprehensive initiative is underway to transform Walton Road, addressing infrastructure, drainage, and traffic concerns along its 18-kilometer stretch from Walton airport to Hadiara drain. The signal-free Walton Road project focuses on a thorough revamp of the Airport Drainage Authority (ADA) drain running parallel to the road. This drain, originally designed to manage 80 cusecs of rainwater, has faced pollution and flooding issues, exacerbated during the rainy season due to sewage water from various localities.

The project, led by CBD Executive Director Technical Riaz Hussain, involves separating sewerage lines from the ADA drain and doubling its capacity to 160 cusecs, a capacity sufficient for the next 50 years. Concrete slabs will cover the ADA drain, with a greenbelt developed on top to enhance the road's aesthetic appeal.

The Central Business District (CBD) Punjab has initiated the revamping of Walton Road as a signal-free corridor, featuring three lanes on each side, a 15-foot green belt, and a 40-foot service lane. The plan includes three pedestrian underpasses, two overhead crossings, and three elevated U-turns to facilitate both pedestrian and vehicular movement.
