Mass transit systems way forward to provide low-cost transport service: PM

Islamabad: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif Thursday said that mass transit systems are the way forward to provide citizens dignified, inexpensive and environment-friendly transport service.

In his tweets today, the Premier said he has ordered feasibility report on expanding the network of Metro Bus System to other areas of the Federal Capital in addition to Peshawar Morr to Islamabad International Airport.

The Prime Minister said Metro Bus project from Peshawar Morr to Airport is still incomplete after five years and ordered inquiry into delay and quick completion of remaining work. 

Shehbaz Sharif said it is unfortunate that public welfare project suffered delays and cost overruns. He said almost all sectors of economy remained stagnant under Imran Khan.
