Railway tracks to be upgraded countrywide under CPEC

ISLAMABAD: The Ministry of Railways will upgrade its existing tracks besides installing new railway tracks from Gwadar-Quetta-Jacobabad via Besima Tehsil in Balochistan, under China-Pak-Economic Corridor (CPEC).

Under the project, a total 560 kilometres track from Bostan-Kotla Jam on the main line-II via Zhob and Dera Ismail Khan and another 682 kilometres track from Havelian to Khunjerab will be laid, a source in the Ministry of Railways told APP.

The upgradation of 1,872 kilometres track from Karachi to Peshawar via Kotri, Multan, Lahore and Rawalpindi (including Taxila-Havelian) – along with dualization of the track from Shahdara to Peshawar will also be carried out.

To enhance connectivity and improve transportation facilities, 1,254 kilometres of railway track from Kotri to Attock City via Dadu, Larkana, Jacobabad, Dera Ghazi Khan, Bhakkar and Kundian will be upgraded.

The CPEC is a 3,000-kilometer network of roads, railways and pipelines to transport oil and gas from Gwadar Port to Kashgar city, Northwestern China’s Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.

An official agreement on the corridor was signed between the two countries in May last year during Chinese President’s historic visit to Pakistan.

The project links China’s strategy to develop its western region with Pakistan’s focus on boosting its economy, including the infrastructure construction of Gwadar Port, together with some energy cooperation and investment programmes.

It also involves road and railway construction including the upgradation of 1,300-km Karakoram Highway, the highest paved international road in the world which connects China and Pakistan across the Karakoram mountains.

The CPEC will reduce China’s routes of oil and gas imports from Africa and the Middle East by thousands of kilometers, making Gwadar a potentially vital link in China’s supply chain. –APP

wow seriously they are constructing pillars right on the surface of the earth

How much Civil engineering do you know? These are Tier II pillars. The Tier I is below the surface, pretty deep in the ground, forming the first level of support foundation. Than, there is the concrete foundation poured and mud put on. What you see here, goes underneath by like 10 feet to avoid damage from even Earthquake. This is the same process they use in China and Japan for heavy commercial building construction, able to withhold earthquakes.

Lahore-Peshawar railway track under CPEC

PESHAWAR: The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) would sponsor a railway track for bridging Lahore and Peshawar. A Chinese company has completed the survey for a 411-kilometre long Lahore to Peshawar railway line. This was stated by an official of the railway sources on Sunday. Speaking to reporters in Peshawar, Muhammad Javed Anwar, chief executive officer and senior general manager Pakistan Railways said that the double track of railway would be under the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) project. He further said that the Chinese engineers and workers were already busy in surveys for the proposed project. Muhammad Javed Anwar added that Pakistan Railways provided an important mode of safe transportation in the farthest corners of the country and it brought such areas closer for business, adventure and education. He added Pakistan Railways has been a great integrating force and forms the life line of the country by catering to the needs of a large scale movement of people and freight to different places of the country. Sources in the Tourism Corporation Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (TCKP) told Daily Times that the department was playing its part to make the largest mean of transportation regain its business spot. The tourism ministry had arranged different trips to different stations of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in collaboration with the Pakistan Railways to relive the stock of the railway ministry and enable the railway department to stand on its feet.
