This project is part of the Peshawar Revitalization Plan and has a completion deadline of 90 days. Afridi confidently claimed that the underpass construction will be completed ahead of schedule. The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has been actively working on several development schemes under the revitalization plan, with some projects already finished or nearing completion. The province is currently investing around Rs. 200 billion in development projects as part of the plan. Afridi commended the efforts of Provincial Minister for Local Government Mina Khan and officials of the Local Government Department for overseeing these projects and ensuring their timely implementation. This year has been declared a year of development, construction, and prosperity in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The province has surpassed its revenue target for the 2025-26 financial year, collecting over Rs. 150 billion compared to the initial Rs. 129 billion target. The government aims to raise collections to Rs. 200 billion in the current financial year.",
