9th Avenue flyover in the offing
ISLAMABAD - The Capital Development Authority (CDA) will construct a flyover on 9th Avenue near Peshawar Morr to ensure smooth flow of traffic in the area, while work on the road between Peshawar Morr and Zero Point would be completed within stipulated time period.
Chairman CDA Engineer Farkhand Iqbal said this on the occasion of his visit to Kashmir Highway to review the progress on development activities on Friday. He said, “Sufficient storage of water was available to meet the requirement of the city. However, hour-long power outages cause hindrance in supply of water from tube-wells.”
He said, that in the presence of President Asif Ali Zardari, CDA has signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), with Chinese company regarding supply of 200 million gallon of water from Ghazi Barotha water reservoir to the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi on daily basis. To cope with the energy crisis, the chairman CDA said that CDA would introduce solar energy system as an alternative energy resource.
He said that the tube-well would be operated on solar energy enabling the authority to save millions of rupee.
