Pakistani Roads, Motorways and Highways

Any update with the new budget of completing the Motorway between Sukkur and Hyderabad? It seems a shame that will all the other roads being build, the primary road to the port of Karachi isn’t completed yet. I understand Sindh politics maybe an issue, but what’s the framework for getting the project back on track?
