Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has inaugurated 127 development schemes in Attock, including 59 road projects with a combined cost of Rs 23 billion, according to the provincial government. The programme includes work on the Fatehjang–Pindigheb Road, Dhoke Laham–Jhamat Road and Mithial Chowk–Dhoke Pathan Road. The government said its development programme has delivered around 850 kilometres of roads across the district.
Alongside road works, the provincial government is funding drainage improvements in Attock city to help reduce the accumulation of rainwater. Attock’s road network serves rural communities and towns including Rawalpindi, Pindi Gheb and Fateh Jang. The planned rehabilitation and expansion could improve connections between these areas, though motorists may face temporary disruption where construction is under way.
The Attock projects follow the recent approval of Rs 32.8 billion in road schemes elsewhere in Punjab, as the province continues to expand its transport infrastructure.
