Some good news guys. There does appear to be solid movement on the Western Corridor. As @PAKISTANFOREVER and @ghazi52 pointed out we have to give some more time for this to pan out. But the potential of the Western Corridor is enormous. Once built it will begin the supercharged development of Gwadar. I hope to one day not too far in the future to drive from Islamabad to Gwadar along A class roads. This may not be as distant as I thought. Minister Murad has really put his back into the Wetern Corridor. A quick summary of where we stand at the present -
WESTERN CORRIDOR
RED M-14 About completed
BLUE Zhob Construct about to start
Broken Blue Planning completed [ smaller sections have already been built near Gwadar]
M-14 Motorway - Note the major bridge over Indus River near Mianwali is still not finished.
Zhob road being built. It will require major tunnels as it crosses into the Sulaiman Mountain range.
Listen to Communications Minister Murad under whose remit this falls. He also mentions additional motorway from Peshawar south to Dera Ismail Khan providing even more boost to the Western Corridor by complementing M-14.
- M-14 motorway from near Islamabad to Dera Ismail Khan is nearly completed and due to open in June 2021.
- Dera Ismail Khan to Zhob section will see work commence on dualizing it
- tenders about to be given for Zhob to Kuchlak/Quetta
- Planning on Gwadar to Quetta soon to be completed.
