The fact we are talking about cleanliness in the 2nd largest city of Pakistan is lost on Mr. Nair. On the other hand, we have Pakistani, yes you read that right, Pakistani members shit shoveling on development in Pakistan cause Sharif did corruption. Sad state of affairs I must say. PML-N is getting a lot of votes in the coming election you bet.

Look at the below companies presence all over the world

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punj_Lloyd

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVK_(conglomerate)

These are very few out of many.....

In pakistan world class companies are absent and every thing depends on China from finanance,design and even construction.

Just GVK project alone in india

Roads:

GVK's Jaipur – Kishangarh Expressway, Rajasthan, the first privately operated six-lane road project with 542.4 lane km. GVK's road portfolio includes other projects of over 900 lane km under various stages of construction and development:

Projects under operation[edit]
  • Jaipur – Kishangarh Expressway (542.4 lane km), Rajasthan
  • Deoli – Kota Expressway (332.16 lane km), Rajasthan
Projects under construction and development[edit]
  • Bagodara – Vasad Expressway (611.4 lane km), Gujarat

Forget India, these companies are doing business in Singapore,Oman you name it... !

To those think that India will not built an 8 lane....

Btw before talking from your behind you need to search about Pakistani companies.

For example Nespak

As of 2016, NESPAK has been contracted to carry out 3,642 projects out of which 3,116 are domestic and 526 are overseas projects with the cumulative cost of projects at $243 billion.[5][6] Among its projects include $1.65 billion Lahore Metro, $4 billion Neelum–Jhelum Project, $800 million New Islamabad Airport, $893 million expansion of Salalah Airport and the $500 million Farah River Dam Project.[7][8][9][10] NESPAK is also managing the supervision of $128 million 15 small dams' project in Western Saudi Arabia[11] and the Obudu Dam project in Nigeria.[12]
 
On google map not many long distance expressways in India, only Pune-Delhi one and that too about 300KM.

Google map distinct between expressway/motorways with wider orange line then highways. These lines are visible without zooming in much. In couple of years Pakistan expressways/motorway line will have expanded from Peshawar-Karachi. Also motorways connecting swat, sialkot, hazara, mirpur, muzaraffad etc

There are even plans to extend Motorway to Kabul in near future.

the difference between motorway and expressway

is that motorway is (british|ireland|new zealand|parts of australia) a broad highway designed for high speed traffic, having restrictions on the vehicle types permitted and merging lanes instead of cross traffic; in parts of the united states and other places called freeway while expressway is a divided highway where intersections and direct access to adjacent properties have been eliminated.


As there are no restricted Motorway system in India and their expressway length is about 15,00 kms, they are mixing things here.

Like they think that a highway can be called a Motorway, or an expressway is same as a motorway...only the difference is of countries with different names in diff. countries. This is the common mistake people make.

a road inside a city cannot be called an expressway or motorway, by that same logic we have 15 to 16 lanes roads in our cities, but we don't call them highways.

Like Bahria Town Karachi main corridor is of 5+5 lane and as service lanes are also included it makes it 18 lanes in width.

there is protection from wildlife on the road in the photos i posted
no there is not you are just pointing at the guard rails, protection from wildlife is different it is these wired fences which keeps any animals away and prevents crashes, any good highway has those an example.

Motorway_Kent_-_010613.jpg

you can clearly see those fences in the black circles.
and how are those pakistani motorways better than our expressways ?
can you prove otherwise, i provided two simple points about having a dedicated police for the highway and protection from wildlife you could not debunk them.
Our highway network is much more than 2000kms
our total highway network is 12,131 kms and the 2000 kms of motorway was added in just last two decades.
 
24 lane gurgaon road...
from my first message in this thread i tried to make a point that why the motorway was better then the Indian highways and i provided facts for that, and all you did is to try and turn this into a dick measuring contest.sir please refrain from this and come to the point at hand.

those guard rails are enough
no they are not on highways which have speed limits more than 130 km/h if any cow or dogs appear suddenly that can be catastrophic, the motorways in UK do have those fences but only in urban areas because that is where most of the wildlife is,

in south Asia most of the wildlife lives near cities thats why it is a necessity in our motorways.

Sir, with due respect I would suggest to do some online research before comparing Bahria Town with Larsen and Toubro which happens to be 9th largest company of India and is ranked 527 worldwide.

Just check the financials of the two companies from independent credible sources before posting whatever is available at Wikipedia

Can't get churlish than this...Bahria Town is purely a real estate developer. Check my posted comments, from where did you deduced the comparison.

Expecting some sage and thoughtful comments from you...

I was replying to Mr.Nair actually...

And this is a fact that Bahria Town is one of the/the largest real estate developer in this part of the world.

okay but i don't think that a motorway MUST have it , then why do you think Indian expressways don't qualify ?
