The National Highway Authority (NHA), Privatisation Commission, and Public-Private Partnership Authority (P3A) discussed on Wednesday the potential of developing four major road projects under the PPP model. Among the proposals discussed, the 169-kilometre section of the M-10 Motorway was considered for execution under the Public-Private Partnership framework.
The meeting also explored constructing the Mansehra-Naran-Jhal Khand-Chilas Motorway to link the route to the Chinese border. Mr Khan pointed out that the proposed Guru Nanak Expressway could play a vital role in facilitating religious tourism for the Sikh community, making it a strong candidate for development under the PPP model.
He also highlighted that expanding the Murree Expressway to Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) could significantly boost tourism and trade across the region.
