The federal government disclosed the estimated cost of a new motorway, M-10, connecting Karachi to Hyderabad during a recent Question Hour session in the National Assembly. The parliamentary secretary for communications, responding to queries, shared that the M-9 expressway will continue to operate alongside the new motorway. Feasibility studies for M-10 have already been completed, and the government is now focusing on constructing a direct link bypassing the existing route, with completion anticipated by 2028.
The project has been segmented into five sections, each approximately 50 kilometers in length, to encourage investment. However, no investor previously showed interest, and the government lacked sufficient funds to proceed independently. International financing arrangements have been made for three sections, with the Islamic Development Bank contributing to two of them.
The procurement process for the remaining sections is nearing completion. Frontier Works Organisation has also shown interest in two sections. All five sections are expected to be completed by 2028, according to the parliamentary secretary.
