Sindh to Launch Action Against Encroachments on Major Roads

The Sindh government has announced plans to launch a comprehensive campaign to eradicate encroachments from major roads and public transport corridors in Karachi. This decision was made during a high-level meeting chaired by Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon on Thursday, with a focus on prioritizing University Road and routes operated by the People's Bus Service as the first phase of the initiative.

All three entities - the police, the city administration, and the transport department - will collaborate to dismantle illegal structures and clear obstructions that hinder traffic and public transit services. Furthermore, the government intends to relocate illegal bus terminals, such as the one located in Sohrab Goth, to areas outside of the city.

Memon emphasized that the presence of road encroachments and unauthorized bus terminals pose significant challenges for commuters, disrupt traffic patterns, and contribute to increased fuel expenses. The meeting also explored strategies to construct contemporary bus terminals beyond Karachi through public-private partnerships, expand the existing Karachi Bus Terminal, and hasten the development of a proposed logistics park.
