  "account": "Islamabad International Airport will see enhanced accessibility through the Margalla Avenue Extension project currently underway, which has reached 36 percent completion. The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has also finalized the structural work on the Sangjani Interchange underpass. This project includes extending Margalla Avenue from N-5 to M-1 and improving the Sangjani Interchange connectivity. CDA Chairman Sohail Ashraf inspected the site and confirmed ongoing 24-hour construction activities to ensure the project stays on schedule. The 2.7-kilometre extension of Margalla Avenue, along with a connecting service road, is being built, while the underpass at Sangjani Interchange, complete with concrete walls and foundation slabs, has been constructed. Earthwork, filling, and other tasks are still in progress. Piling work for the N-5 Interchange Bridge abutments on both sides has been completed, with steel fixing and framework activities ongoing. Four culverts have been completed, and work on the fifth is in progress. Overall development of loops and ramps is also advancing. Following the visit, the CDA chairman instructed departments to clear obstacles and maintain quality, speed, and transparency in the construction. The Margalla Avenue Extension and Sangjani Interchange project will better facilitate travel to Islamabad for commuters from various regions, particularly Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and boost connectivity to Islamabad International Airport.",
