Islamabad and Rawalpindi Get Rolling with New Discounted Bus Services

By Beluxe,

Commuters in Islamabad and Rawalpindi have something to celebrate! The Capital Development Authority (CDA) is introducing two new bus services: the Purple Line and the Silver Line. This expansion aims to provide a modern and affordable transportation system for residents.

Expanding the Network:

  • Purple Line: This service will operate on IJP Road, connecting areas like Pirwadhai, Khyaban-e-Sir Syed, Dhoke Najju, and sectors I-9, I-10, and I-11.
  • Silver Line: This service will start from Taramri, further extending the reach of the public transportation network.
  • Blue Line Extension: The existing Blue Line service will be extended to Rawat, providing additional connectivity options.

Making it Affordable:

The CDA is committed to making these services accessible to everyone, offering:

  • Discounted fares: Students and senior citizens (over 60) will enjoy 50% discount on fares.
  • Free rides: Children under 10 years old will ride for free.

Addressing the Gap:

These new services aim to fill the gaps in the current public transportation system, reaching areas not currently served by the Metro Bus service.

Looking Ahead:

The initial plan included purchasing 300 new buses for these lines. While details are still emerging, the CDA is expected to re-initiate contact with China to secure the necessary vehicles.

Overall, the introduction of the Purple Line and Silver Line, along with the extension of the Blue Line, demonstrates the CDA’s commitment to improving public transportation in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. By offering affordable fares and wider coverage, these services have the potential to benefit a significant portion of the population.

Rawalpindi Cracks Down on Illegal Housing Schemes: Four More Noticed, One Referred for Action

By Beluxe,

The Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) continues its fight against illegal housing schemes in the city. Under the leadership of Director General Muhammad Saif Anwar Jappa, the RDA issued notices to four more unapproved schemes:

  • Pak Sar Zameen Town at Chakri Road
  • Century Town Housing Scheme
  • Rawat City Housing Scheme
  • Al-Buraq Enclave Rawat

A Stern Warning:

The RDA has warned the owners and sponsors of these schemes to cease all marketing activities and immediately pursue the necessary approvals. Failure to comply will result in strict legal action, including the filing of First Information Reports (FIRs).

Previous Actions:

This move follows the filing of FIRs against two other illegal schemes: Pak Sar Zameen Town at Chakri Road and Century Town.

Combating Illegal Advertising:

Additionally, the RDA has directed the Director of Metropolitan Planning & Traffic Engineering (MP&TE) to take action against illegal advertisements and marketing for unapproved projects. This includes social media advertising, as exemplified by the case of South City Developers, operating outside of RDA’s jurisdiction but advertising illegally in the Rawalpindi area.

Protecting the Public:

The RDA remains committed to protecting the public from fraudulent and risky investments. They urge citizens to avoid investing in unapproved projects and to verify the status of any housing scheme on the official RDA website: https://rda.gop.pk/.

  • Promoting tourism and recreation: The dams, particularly the one in Murree, will be accompanied by amusement parks, creating new tourist attractions and recreational spaces for residents and visitors.

Specific Projects:

Several dams have been named in the reports, including:
