KARACHI: Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon has urged the World Bank (WB) to support the revival of the Karachi Circular Railway (KCR) as well as the project of a high speed train between Karachi and Sukkur.

In a meeting with a WB delegation that called on him on Wednesday, the minister said the two projects would prove to be a game changer for Sindh.

The minister and the bank delegation discussed ways to improve urban mobility across the province and strengthen the transport system, said a press release issued after the meeting.

Mr Memon, who holds the portfolios of information, transport and mass transit, briefed the delegation on the WB-funded Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Yellow Line project and noted that work on one section, the Taj Haider Bridge, had been completed and that the remaining work was progressing quickly.
