They are leaving enough space on both sides under bridge so they can add two extra lanes in future.. I look like they are using their brain... but not splashing money..

Remember this was highway before being converted to motorway. Islamabad-Lahore motorway was new route. They should have made 4 lanes on each side.

Why we always find trucks and heavy traffic on fast track?. Motorway police must give them heavy fine so that they know which lane they have to drive.
