Lahore: Punjab Central Business District Development Authourity (PCBDDA) also known as Central Business District Punjab (CBD Punjab), has completed major connections and made Disposal Station One fully functional as part of the Walton Road upgradation project.
Work on Disposal Station One was temporarily halted following directives from the Lahore High Court (LHC) and the Government of Punjab to combat smog. With the relaxation of smog restrictions, construction activities have resumed in full swing and the critical backfilling process has commenced. The disposal station’s backfill, a technical and intricate job, is progressing in line with standard engineering practices and is expected to be completed soon.
Project Director Walton Road Upgradation, Asif Babar, highlighted the complexity of the project, stating, “The construction of Disposal Station One was a challenging task involving major diversions of sewerage lines and the ADA Nullah. CBD Punjab has successfully completed the connection of ADA Nullah and the major trunk sewer, ensuring the system’s full functionality.”
To prioritize public safety near the excavation site of Disposal Station One on Walton Road, CBD Punjab has installed safety barricades to prevent any mishaps or accidents. Additionally, to ensure smooth traffic flow in the area, carpeted road patches have been provided near the disposal station.
Streetlight installations on Walton Road and the Major Ishaq Shaheed Flyover have also been completed. Following the completion of the backfill process at Disposal Station One, the Major Ishaq Shaheed Flyover will be fully operational, significantly enhancing the traffic experience for commuters. CBD Punjab remains committed to completing infrastructure projects efficiently while maintaining safety and quality standards.
