The Peshawar Development Authority (PDA) evolved from the Greater Peshawar Metropolitan Authority, established in 1975, and was later restructured under subsequent urban planning laws and administrative reforms. Over the years, its governance has transitioned through various provincial frameworks, reflecting changes in urban management and local government systems in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
PDA is responsible for the planned development and regulation of Peshawar, focusing on urban planning, housing schemes, and infrastructure development. Through its role under provincial administration, the authority continues to support organized city growth, ensuring effective planning and implementation of development initiatives.
