All aboard: ‘Rawalpindi-Islamabad Metro Bus almost complete’

In India, We prefer Metro Rail rather than Metro Bus or BRT

The reason being Metro trains run on either elevated Tracks or under ground tracks. BRT runs roads, which causes jams and congestions

In rawalpindi metro bus has separate road therefore there shall be no traffic jam.

I think, in Pakistan Metro Rail would run in loss considering the current size of economy so thats why Metro Bus, which is understandable.

If properly maintained it shall be in profit. A large number of passengers travel from Rawalpindi to Islamabad and back daily.
 
.
Ohhh you tell us please about some useful projects...we shall be enlightened...!!
If this money would've been diverted to Neelum Jhelum or Tarbela Dam we could get it completed sooner.

Easy, do nothing (kpk)
.
I agree if this Naya KPK | News & Updates on the development in KPK. is nothing then federal govt should pursue agressive agenda of nothingness. In some way by your definition Pakistan might end up becoming a developed country by doing 'nothing'.

Eating and drinking is prohibited in Delhi Metro.

Agla Station Rajeev Chowk hai, darwaje banye taraf khulenge,, Sawdhaane sai utare. Next Station, Rajeev Chowk, Door open on the left, please mind the gap.

I like that girl's voice :D but she doesn't sound Indian or fake British accent? :p:
 
. .
I'm just wondering, have they accounting for the volume of traffic in goods transport and many other private vehicles who will not take the Metros having to go on the same route with narrower roads?
Or perhaps that is just not done in Third world planning.

Planning?? the word ''planning'' in Pakistan...:D

Here is an example of planning from our province

''Of the 56 sites given us to install solar panels in three month, 3 sites are feasible...rest are not as there is no land to install solar panels..:lol:''
:enjoy:

.
ohh check your self and check resources of your country & then have an eye on highly developed countries like Germany.

Beggars sitting on gold !

and for this project, they could have easily completed a tram track. I have seen this metro in Lahore. There is not even space to stand in these damn buses. They should run on normal roads as they do in all over EU. They come on time and depart on time. Not even a minute delay.
Here beggars are happy that they have made tracks to facilitate Itefaq foundry iron and cement of Mian Mansha. Buses have no arrival & departure times, even on specialized tracks. wow cheers u have now a metro track.
Is that the best you can say, your idiotic comments requires a lot of update...before whining here you must understand the requirements of densely populated urban cities which are getting outa control...tram train...that's hilarious...and you think trams have more space than the buses.:argh:...secondly Itefaq foundry since 1998 was taken over by Musharraf government, and than in the absence of Sharief family, courts handed over control of ittefaq foundry to the banks and financial instititutions enabling them to get their outstanding amount against Ittefaq foundry liquidated by selling it's assets. Since been liquidated there is nothing outstanding against ittefaq foundry and the factories stands closed since than....get yourself updated before crying on the international forums.
Despite all stupid claims you can make...enjoy smooth silk roads, bridges, infrastructure in Europe which these countries made 60 years ago through which they are harnessing the world's investment and getting revenues in billions....!! Your beggar leader can make another cancer hospital for you through another chanda muhim all across the world...you can put your share as well....but this isn't enough to run the multicultural, multi ethnic, population of 200 million people....!!!

Visit any Government hospital.
Let me take you to Punjab Institute of Cardiology any day you want...!!:welcome::welcome:

If this money would've been diverted to Neelum Jhelum or Tarbela Dam we could get it completed sooner.
.
Neelum Jhelum project is gonna be completed at the end of 2016, get yourself updated man. This project was initiated in early 90s, and the legendary Musharraf along with PPP government was never able to complete that...this government after almost 24 years has announced it's completion in 2016....you can have all the doubts but you cannot question the Sharif's government's ability for the completion of these mega projects.

Enjoy your life, don't need to worry about our situation....and keep putting your share in Chanda muhim of your leader who knows how to beg for his charity organization, and to defame national leaders while standing on containers with utmost impotency to provide single evidence...!! Stop using spoon fed words here you moron.

I don't understand these people complaining about these mega projects. Kuch karo tau bhi masla kuch na karo tau bhi.

People voted for PMLN based on the manifesto of development. Now if you don't like these public transport projects then you can wait till 2018 and vote for someone else. Meanwhile a metro is coming to your city anyways.
