Need the same for other Parts of Pakistan, especially in those areas where its hard for normal ambulances to operate..

ya bhai Punjab govt ko mila ga , specially Lahore. I am afraid Shahbaz Shareef soon announce Lahore as independent state.

We really need to institute and enforce some urban planning laws, If it means purchasing and demolishing buildings to make wider roads then so be it.

Ambulance, Police, and Fire&Rescue need access to all areas of the city, and if an incident such as a spinal injury occurs, you cant expect to transport someone to hospital on a motorbike.
