Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah visited key locations in Karachi to monitor the under-construction Redline BRT project, emphasizing its importance for public transport.
Murad Ali Shah said the Redline BRT project is a strategic initiative designed to provide rapid, safe, and environmentally friendly travel for citizens. He stressed that no compromise would be made on the quality of development work.
“The People’s Party has delivered on its promise to provide modern travel facilities to the people of Karachi. Flyovers, underpasses, bus stations, and service roads are gifts to the public,” he said.
The CM highlighted that the Redline BRT project will reduce traffic congestion and improve commuting efficiency across the city. He added that timely completion of the Redline and Shahrah-e-Bhutto projects is crucial for modern civic development.
During a briefing, Murad Ali Shah was informed that the Redline BRT project comprises two phases. Phase-I runs from Mosmiyat to Malir Halt and includes the construction of seven modern bus stations. These stations are Kings Cottage, Safoora, Race Course, Malir Cantt, Tank Chowk, and Tipu Sultan. The Tipu Sultan station was added as an additional facility.
The briefing also mentioned that Phase-I will include three underpasses at Hydrant, Tipu Sultan, and Safoora to enhance traffic flow and safety. Murad Ali Shah noted that these features are part of the broader plan to provide citizens with efficient and comfortable public transport.
The Redline BRT project is expected to transform urban mobility in Karachi by offering fast, reliable, and environmentally sustainable travel. Officials said the project will also complement other civic infrastructure initiatives to improve the overall quality of life in the city.
Murad Ali Shah reiterated that the government is committed to completing the Redline BRT project on schedule, ensuring high standards of construction and modern facilities for Karachi residents.
