Green line project

Published October 17, 2017

ON an optimistic approach, the Karachi green line project surely seems like a promising step. But, unfortunately, it has also reduced the size of roads around the elevated track.

As a student, I have to face traffic jams on a daily basis because of this issue. It results in mental anguish and a decrease in motivation to even attend my university.

Now there is word that this project will be completed in a few months. We have been listening to such promises for the last more than a year.

The authorities concerned should ensure completion of this project as soon as possible.
