PM Imran links multi-trillion rupee Ravi project to Lahore’s survival

I don't think Govt is able to invest such a high digit. It would probably end up in the hands of private real estate tycoons.
Of course private sector will be doing all the work. If you haven't watched PM's speech about this project then please do as it will answer all your questions.

I have NEVER understood why Pakistani cities grow this way...
Cities have long stopped growing vertically.

PTi is a short term incentive project for the Pakistani capitalist machine.
 
I have NEVER understood why Pakistani cities grow this way...

Because Plotistan model is unlike anywhere else. For high rise apartments one actually have to invest and take risks. Here builders like Malik Riaz want money selling plots at 10x price before doing any work.
 
Ravi River Front Urban Development Project.

The Supreme Court (SC) permitted the Punjab government to go ahead with its Ravi Riverfront Development Project after suspending the Lahore High Court (LHC) verdict declaring the project as illegal.
A two-member bench of the apex court comprising Justice Ijazul Ahsen and Justice Mazahir Ali Akbar Naqvi suspended the LHC verdict and allowed the Punjab government to continue with its project. The apex court on Monday admitted for regularhearing appeals challenging the LHC verdict and issued notices to the parties concerned. If there is a possibility of filing an intra-court appeal (ICA), the matter would be remanded back to high court, the court held.
During the course of hearing, the court raised some legal questions over the matter, but Punjab Advocate General Ahmed Awais along with legal team of the provincial government could not answer the court’s questions satisfactorily. “Tell us as to what is your case?” Justice Ahesn asked the Punjab AG.
Justice Mazahir Ali Akbar Naqvi observed that it seemed the AG came to court unprepared. Justice Ijazul Ahsen, however, observed some 18 petitions were before the LHC in the matter so it did not matter if the provincial government was not a party in one case.
Ahmed Awais, however, contended that the petitions filed before the LHC were against the public hearing of the environment agency. “So don’t give wrong statement before us,” Justice Ahsen told the provincial legal team.
The court further noted in its order when it raised question as to why an Intra Court Appeal was not filed against the LHC order, the provincial government contended that it did not because the actual forum for getting relief was the Supreme Court
