yeh that was the plan in MK era however now we have a TUN PARTY good for nothing mayor ,its unlikely we will see that happening in the next 10years

There is only a finite number of cars you can have, mass transit is the way forward, we need our politicians to wake up, and do this on a war footing.

I don't think Karachi Mass Transit Project is true or not, because i am hearing about this project from 4 5 years but i don't think it is even started.

As for my opinion it will be excellent if Karcahi govt take quick steps to build up Urban transport system, underground Metro system & low floor urban bus system.

How long was India time, between planning and implementing Delhi metro?

Lets say, if it wasnt for the CWG, it would of taken another 10 years to get to where Delhi metro is now. So the only way for Pakistam metro line to accelerate is to host a major sporting event.

At least something was ALWAYS going on in case of Delhi metro that people can always read in the news...

But here is a news blackout on Lahore metro

 

[kingkobra]

all i can see is some indian compared cost of metro line and thus implying of possible corruption....is it trolling??? i dont think so...trolling was started by one who started bringing inferiority complex and bad indian motorways ans bla bla stuff..
-----------
btw is land acquisition done already or not?
what is current situation??
i think skyscrapercity will be better place to get latest news about this thing..

 

[Dance]

Again no one cares about the delhi metro or india in general so please stop going off topic!

 

[Frankenstein]

I find it very funny all the time, look at the topic, and look at what Indians are discussing here, get over your arrogance

somebody needs to give them a really bad spanking like they give to those bully kids
