Pakistani people need to learn drive in lanes, like it used to be in past. There must be one lane dedicated for bike riders.

LAHORE: The first consignment of five wagons for the country’s first metro train, the Orange Line Metro Train (OLMT), will reach Lahore by the end of this month.

The OLMT Steering Committee Chairman Khawaja Ahmad Hassaan told that final inspection of train wagons was underway in China after which the first train wagons would be shipped for Pakistan. He said all 27 trains would reach Lahore by August or September as the government had targeted to start nation’s first metro train operations by the end of the current year.


Ahmed said over 71% civil works of the metro project had already been completed and he had directed project civil contractors to finalise two model stations, Salamatpura and Islam Park, by July 31. He had directed officials concerned to install information signs and ticketing kiosks and made arrangements for security of completed stations.

Answering a question, he disclosed, a sub-committee was in a process of finalising information sign designs.

“I have directed them to opt the best available option for which some experts have visited and inspected information signs of similar projects in different countries, including the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Most likely we will install information signs similar to the Dubai Metro as it has latest design and technology,” he maintained.


As monsoon had started earlier this year, he said, all contractors had been directed to provide safety gears to their workers and ensure proper safety measures were taken to avoid any untoward incident. Rescue 1122 had also been asked to conduct a short safety training course for its workers.

LAHORE - Five sets of train, each comprising five cars, have so far been manufactured in China for Lahore Orange Line Metro Train, which will operate at a commercial speed of 35 kilo meters per hour.

This was informed at a meeting held on Wednesday to review progress on Lahore Orange Line Metro Train Project with Kh Ahmad Hasan in the chair.

Arrangements for parking these coaches are being finalised at Dera Gujran Depot by laying a two kilo meters long track for this purpose. Hasan said alternate piece of land has been identified for shifting Munawar Mosque, situated at Nichelson Road.

Construction of new building of mosque will soon be started after payment to the present owners, he added. A two-day workshop for imparting safety training to the officials of various departments involved in execution of this project will be held from Friday to Saturday. The chairman of OLMT steering committee observed that the World Heritage Committee has neither objected on the present alignment of the train’s track outside Shalimar Gardens, nor it has asked for altering the track at this point. The World Heritage Committee also scrapped the proposal for putting the Gardens on the list of ‘World Heritage in Danger’ as a result of effective presentation technical data and relevant reports by Pakistan at this august forum. This decision was a great achievement at the part of our team participating in the conference, Hasan added.

He congratulated all the persons associated with this project in any capacity over this success.
