D-12 Update,

(49283)
Monday, November 17, 2008 03:22 PM 

Friends,

I recently visited D-12 and wanted interested parties to update you on what I saw.

1. Underground electric work was in full progress.I saw more then a dozen people working.
2. Sewege was previously completed for most area but I saw more pipes. I assume they were for the area that was illegally occupied earlier and now vacated.
3. A lot of yellow pipes were delivered that were not there just last month. Not sure what those yellow pipes are.
4. A lot of ground was dug for utilities that was not there just a month ago according to a local.

Therefore it appears that all utilities work are well underway and 'appears' to be promising. Hopefully the contractor is pushing to complete the work by April 2009 as agreed bewtween CDA and contractor.

Regards

Desi

Dear Desi

Thank you very much brother for this up date. Try to find out new completion schedule / time agreed between contractor and CDA.

Take care and have a nice time.

Dear ZB,

From my understanding the completion date agreed between CDA and contractor is April 2009. I have also heard July 2009 at the latest for us to get the possesion. CDA has setup a committee to provide a weekly status report.

During my this trip to Pakistan I was ready to sell my plot in D-12 and buy something BT or DHA, but after seeing the progress I am willing to wait for possibly the best sector in the capital.

With sewege in place for most of the sector, and electric, and gas work in progress I am hopeful that the roads will be finalized early next year. Hopefully that is it for us to start construction.

I have also heard news that CDA/Govt is considering postponing new sector work untill the existing sectors such as D-12 are completed first.

If my assumptions are right I won't be surprised that the plot proces will double in D12 as soon as we get the possesion especially since realestate in Dubai, USA, and other places (including rest of the Pakistan) are taking a big hit. But please use your own judgement when investing. I am not suggestion anyone to invest in D-12.
