GUJRANWALA, Nov 18: Motorists and transporters have demanded the re-surfacing of GT Road from Kharian to Lahore. The present condition of the road, according to them, is costing them heavily in terms of wear and tear.
"With so many potholes on the dual carriageway, the travelling is not only problematic but dangerous too," says a local transporter.
He said the government earned a huge sum in the shape of toll collection and traffic challan by the Motorway police but the public was not being extended any relief.
