The federal government is considering collecting double toll tax on motorways used by single-driver cars to mitigate the energy crisis and the impact of higher fuel prices.

It is also mulling over a plan under which vehicles may ply roads on alternative days based on odd and even number plates.

The cabinet, in a recent meeting, decided that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif would constitute a committee to discuss those proposals for energy conservation.

According to the proposed plan, the provincial governments will be asked to issue a notification for mandatory biannual tuning and inspection of motor vehicles.

It was further proposed that the provincial agriculture departments would develop programmes and provide training to the technical staff of the field engineering wing for assisting farmers in tractor tuning.

Another proposal was that Sunday should be declared as a vehicle-free day in big cities and a daylight saving programme should be adopted by moving the clock ahead.

The committee will also consider other proposals like lowering the speed limit on motorways/ highways and doubling the toll tax on motorways for single-driver cars.

The Power Division briefed the cabinet that the prime minister had convened a meeting on June 4 to discuss the current energy crisis and potential measures to mitigate the shortage. Various proposals were submitted by the power secretary.

Earlier, the prime minister had formed a working group consisting of the federal minister for finance, minister for energy, minister of state for petroleum, and minister for media and broadcasting.

The working group had been tasked to deliberate further energy conservation measures and firm up definite proposals.

The working group recommended certain proposals, but most of them were either difficult to implement or did not offer sufficient benefits.

The group proposed a five-day work week under which Saturday would be declared as a holiday. It may be announced immediately

NHA to connect Abbottabad with CPEC’s M-15 Motorway​

By Khalid Aziz
Jun 22, 2022

ISLAMABAD, June 23 (Gwadar Pro) - The National Highway Authority (NHA) has invited proposals for construction of an interchange on Hazara Motorway (M-15) to connect with Abbottabad city, the headquarter of Hazara Division.

The proposed interchange will also connect Sherwan Road to link villages in the mountainous region of Tanol with Hazara Motorway, NHA said. The interchange will be built right after the first tunnel on Hazara Motorway (Shimla Hills tunnel), it added.

NHA said that it will open the technical proposals for detailed design and consultancy of the project on July 19.

A 59-kilometer-long section of Hazara Motorway from Hasanabdal to Havelian was financed by Asian Development Bank and DFID. China Communications Construction Co. executed and financed the 120 kilometers part of the motorway from Havelian to Thakot through government concessional loan of $1.32 billion under CPEC. China will also provide technical and financial support for realignment of Karakorum Highway from Thakot to Raikot (250 kilometers).

The road is being realigned due to construction of dams on Indus River.

Hazara Motorway has played a vital role in promoting tourism in Pakistan’s beautiful northern areas.

PESHAWAR, June 28 (Gwadar Pro) - To have multiple access, the provincial government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) has decided to build an additional access road to Rashakai Special Economic Zone (RSEZ), a flagship project of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
The project namely “Access Road to Rashakai Special Economic Zone from Kernal Sher Khan Interchange (Phase-II)” will be completed at a cost of Rs. 300 million.
Currently, RSEZ is accessible from Wali Interchange on M-1; however, with the construction of the new access road, the zone will be accessible from Kernal Sher Khan Interchange on M-1 and Swat Expressway as well.
Abdul Karim Tordher, Special Assistant to CMPK on Industries had told Gwadar Pro that Rs. 100 million has been allocated during Annual Development Program 2022-23 for the project while the remaining Rs. 300 million will be allocated beyond 2022-23. “We want to provide multiple access to REZ, as in the near future the area will be the hub of commercial activities for the whole region,” he said.
RSEZ is located at an ideal place, which is the confluence of the major five districts of KP and is reachable via a network of roads, motorways, and railways. The Government of KP and KPEZDMC and China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) are developing RSEZ, which is spread over an area of approximately 1,000 acres of land. RSEZ is expected to provide 200,000 direct and indirect employment opportunities to the locals.
