On Wednesday, LDA Vice Chairman Mian Marghub Ahmed and Director General Tahir Farooq inspected various parts of the Gulberg Scheme, including the G-1 Market to Bhalla Chowk Structure Plan Road, Hali Road, Zahoor Elahi Road, and Fashion Avenue, to review ongoing projects.

During the visit, the DG briefed the vice chairman that development works were being carried out under a sustainable model across multiple blocks and commercial corridors of Gulberg. He directed officials to speed up progress and ensure stronger coordination with related departments.

As part of the new initiative, Fashion Avenue will be closed to vehicles from 6 pm to 12 am daily, turning it into a walk-in street for pedestrians. Additionally, the removal of a roundabout on Zahoor Elahi Road will make way for an extra traffic lane, helping reduce congestion.

Vice Chairman Marghub welcomed the measures, stating that such projects would not only beautify Lahore but also align with sustainable development objectives.

Officials also inspected the G-1 Market to Bhalla Chowk Structure Plan Road and were briefed on the obstacles delaying its completion.
