Lyari Expressway

Lyari Expressway (Southbound track) is now open for public access to travel through one end to the other end of metropolitan city, Karachi. This 18.7 kilometer long motorway has reduced the traveling time from 2 hours (apr) to 20 minutes (apr). Maximum travelling speed is 80km/hr. The Expressway has controlled access 2 lanes for public vehciles and 1 dedicated lane for emergency services. This Expressway starts from North Lyari Bridge near Sohrab Goth on Super Highway, it skips the most congested areas like Liaquatabad, Lasbela etc. and terminate at South Lyari Bridge on Mauripur Road. This expressway includes 4 Interchanges, 6 Overpasses, 4 other small bridges.

 

(Inspired by London's River Thames) By developing Lyari River a passage way for inter-city cruises and boats, city government can open another door of work opportunities as well as it will add-up another attraction and entertainment spot in the city.

 

As shown in the picture above surroundings of Lyari River, water level and boats are not real, as it looks in the imaginery picture created by myself. Currently, it is a filthy sewrage passage way which is heading towards Arabian Sea in south of the Karachi City.
