The Old Airport Road Project in Rawalpindi is an important urban infrastructure improvement designed to enhance connectivity between key residential areas, commercial zones and major transport routes. The road serves thousands of daily commuters and provides a vital link to nearby hospitals, markets, cantonment areas and the old Benazir Bhutto Airport vicinity. Upgrading this corridor is essential for reducing congestion and supporting smoother urban mobility.
The project involves road resurfacing, widening in selective sections, drainage enhancement, installation of street lighting and improvement of pedestrian pathways. Modern traffic management features are also being added to ensure safer and more organized movement for vehicles and pedestrians. These improvements help reduce travel time, ease bottlenecks and support better access to surrounding neighborhoods and business districts.
