Lahore not Punjab and not Pakistan. This massive expenditure doesn't benefit anyone.

You use subway trains in New your not in Flint county in USA that is how the things work Lahore has a big population density of Punjab so these type of projects benefit every one commuting the city. These type of projects are for big cities. where population is dense and commuting needs to be economical.

Exactly bro, you can see, cities like Lahore, Islamabad, Multan, Faisalabad (planned) etc. are big cities of Punjab with dense population and complex traffic issues, so its logical that they need rapid transport systems, and better road infrastructure...
Plus look at kpk, why didn't kpk govt constructing Rapid Bus system for Kohat, Bannu, Haripur etc. but for Peshawar? because Peshawar needs it the most due to above mentioned reasons...simple.

You clearly missed the point. Financial viability isn't the debate, spending priorities are.

Totally agree with you. Currently Lahore's hospitals need more ventilators but money is being diverted to other projects but Lahore is expanding south now and that part of the city needs to be connected with rest of the city and plus Thokar entry point of Lahore is always messed up so projects was needed. It is a big sum of money spent today but will surely pay back in coming times.
