Route and Capacity Details
The Yellow Line will cover 24 kilometers, running from Thokar Niaz Baig to Harbanspura. This line will serve about 130,000 passengers every day. That means fewer cars and buses on the roads. As a result, traffic will become smoother, and travel time will drop.
A Budget for the Future
The government has set a budget of PKR 80 billion. It will be used to build electric rail lines and improve public transport. This budget also shows the importance of clean and smart infrastructure.
Electric Trains from China
The plan includes 20 modern electric trains from China. These trains are safer, faster, and more energy-efficient. They will make travel easy and smooth for daily passengers. However, the purchase is still waiting for final approvals.
Cleaner Air, Healthier City
The project aims to lower the use of fuel-based transport. That means less air pollution. Electric trains will reduce carbon emissions, leading to cleaner air and a healthier environment. This will benefit both people and the planet.
Project Timeline and Goals
Work is expected to finish between September 2025 and June 2026. Once done, the Yellow Line will become a model project for other cities in Pakistan. It also shows how Lahore is planning for a better, greener future.
Conclusion: A Modern Move for Lahore
The Yellow Line is more than just a train route. It shows Lahore’s focus on smart city planning. It supports the idea of sustainable growth. With better transport, cleaner air, and modern trains, Lahore is on the right track.
