Work on signal free Islamabad Expressway from today

ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) will launch work on the expansion and signal-free Islamabad Expressway on Tuesday.

CDA Spokesman Ramzan Sajid informed that the project, costing Rs 21 billion involves the expansion of Expressway to 10 lanes from the Zero Point to Rawat providing the commuters a signal free ride across the 24-kilometer. The project would be executed in three phases. In the first phase, portion of the Expressway between Zero Point and Faizabad interchanges would be widened to 10 lanes. The stretch between Faizabad and the Airport Chowk would be expanded in the second phase and the remaining portion up to Rawat would be catered for in the third phase.

The project involves construction of two overhead passages and seven underpasses for an access to housing societies located along the road. Of five lanes on either sides as designed in the project, three would be flexible and the rest two rigid for movement of heavy vehicles.

Recent heat wave in Karachi killed thousands just like roasting them between concrete ovens. Unplanned concrete buildings and road surfaces heat up the city environment by 10 degrees.

It is not the climate changes that are to blame for droughts, drying out of soil and streams, lowering of rivers and groundwater levels. Rather, the real culprits are the three phenomena which keep on spreading inconspicuously but quickly throughout the city lands: Compressed surfaces (even those with small inclination degree); Man-made slopes (in which the existing capillaries are broken); and Draining ditches in the lowlands

All these phenomena contribute to the draining of lands, thanks to which the sun heats up the soil, which, consequently, heats up the atmosphere....
These three phenoma influence climate change dramatically.

In few years time, Lahore and Faisalabad cities will be washed away drowning millions of people.
