The recently completed Park Road underpass in Islamabad has begun to see traffic, overcoming months of construction delays. A video shared by a local resident on social media captured vehicles navigating the newly operational route, signaling the completion of the infrastructure project.
Construction on the underpass commenced in March 2026 and faced a four-month timeline, but was only finalized after a short period of setbacks. The project, valued at Rs. 10 billion, encompasses not just the underpass but also an overhead structure, service roads, and additional road infrastructure.
The initiative is designed to enhance traffic flow and connectivity between Park Road, Margalla Avenue, and surrounding areas, with the ultimate goal of alleviating congestion, reducing travel times, and cutting fuel consumption. In June, the state minister for interior, Muhammad Talal Chaudhry, informed the Senate that the first phase, including the underpass, was expected to be completed by July, with the remaining tasks slated for completion in August.
