LAHORE – Bustling city of Lahore continues to face massive traffic jams on weekdays, especially during business hours, where car and bike parking remains one of the key issues.
Amid plethora of traffic issues, the provincial government decided to address persistent parking challenges, and a detailed plan has been chalked out to build parking plazas in over a dozen sites across the metropolis.
A huddle under top officials of the Punjab government emphasized the urgent need to resolve the parking shortage in the city of 15 million. CM Punjab directed all concerned departments to start construction in the most congested areas without delay.
