The IJP Road Expansion and Rehabilitation Project is a major infrastructure initiative designed to upgrade one of the most important connecting routes between Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The project aims to improve traffic flow, enhance road safety and support smoother travel for thousands of daily commuters. As a key corridor linking IJP Road with Srinagar Highway, GT Road and surrounding residential and industrial areas, its expansion is essential for reducing congestion and improving regional mobility.
The development includes widening of the roadway, addition of new lanes, rehabilitation of damaged sections, construction of flyovers and bridges, drainage improvements, pedestrian pathways and modern street lighting. These enhancements help manage heavy traffic loads, reduce travel time and create a safer and more efficient route for public transport, private vehicles and freight movement. The upgraded corridor also strengthens access to nearby markets, industrial zones and major city routes.
