The development projects in Karachi should be tourism-oriented so that more and more tourists are attracted to the city. For that roads leading to beaches and historical places must be developed. Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah made these remarks on Monday as he chaired a meeting to review the development schemes in the city under the Karachi Package.
Gulbai road
He said the construction of road in Gulbai would not only resolve the traffic congestion issues in the locality but also promote tourism and recreational activities along the shore.
The construction of the 5.25-kilometre dual carriageway from Gulbai to Y-junction has been estimated at Rs1.01 billion and it would be completed within six months. The CM directed the local government department to construct a storm water drain on both sides of the road. “I want the issues of drainage in the area to be resolved before the construction of the road,” he stated.
