RAWALPINDI:
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has joined hands with the Rawalpindi Metropolitan Corporation (RMC) to revamp the old city area of the garrison city.
RMC in collaboration with UNDP has prepared the project concept (PC-I) for the urban regeneration project of historic areas of Rawalpindi.
According to the PC-I seen by The Express Tribune, the project to uplift ancient areas of Rawalpindi including Sarafa Bazaar and Bohar Bazaar will cost Rs73.10 million.
Under the project, all utility cables would be moved underground and all poles would be removed to give the area a clean look. An end to the mesh of wires and cables will enhance the actual colonial aura of these 250 years old localities, officials said.
