Any one have idea about construction of Southern loop (Ferozpure Road to Multan Road) of Multan ring road. Punjab Govt. started work on it or still delayed

Sorry want to ask about Lahore ring road rather than Multan

It is still in bidding phase and construction will take couple of months to start. With the construction of Metro Train and Karachi-Lahore motorway, i am not sure how serious this government is to start Ring Road construction, because those two projects are more important than Ring Road. Those two projects will earn this government more votes than ring road project. It will be more clear in coming months.

@ Lahori Guy,

Why would they float the RFPs and call for bid opening by june-end if they are not interested or so. I think they are very much interested in it. Just wait for the provincial budget to be announced next month. i am sure a nice sum of funds would be allocated for it.

By the way it is a long due project. Construction might start by end of this year... and the expected completion may be sometimes in the first quarter of 2018.
Rest Allah knows the best

They had started same activity 2 years back but then they put it on hold and government went with construction of metro bus. I would be very happy if they start it asap as it will benefit my investment in Fazaia and Bahria Town. Apart from Ring road Southern Loop, currently, Punjab government and LDA have many projects in pipeline
- Metro train
- Lahore Khanewal section of Karachi Lahore motorway
- Sialkot Lahore Expressway/motorway
- Signal free Jail road to Main Boulevard (2-3 underpasses will be made)
- Elevated expressway from Gulberg to Babu Sabu
- Kahna Kacha Railway Crossing Flyover
- Extension of Metro Bus route till Kala Shah Kaku
- Ravi Riverfront

If you follow these projects, all of them are at different stages. Some are in land acquisition phase or some are in planning/design phase and for some feasibility have been done. Land acquisition for ring road has not been started yet. Only the land to be acquired has been marked.

I don't buy the happy picture of Ring Road Southern loop will be completed in 3 years as Punjab government have other mass appealing projects.
