By 2020 Pakistan should have pretty much all country connected with motorway. No longer dependent on poorly maintained national highway.

Many parts of western Balochistan have nothing similar. There should be a motorway from Waziristan to Gwadar, via Quetta, running in western Balochistan.

Oh absolutely , and the infrastructure being laid is also of high standards. Good things about such projects is , that they have long life. They are there for several decades, needing maintenance from time to time.

Reinforced concrete was never used on Pakistani roads. This sort of construction is used on German motorways, which is why they’re the best quality in the world. Unfortunately the rest of this motorway is built on compacted dirt instead.

PKHA officials visit Swat motorway project. FWO misses yet another target of March,2018 and they are way behind schedule. But PKHA officials expressed their satisfaction on speed and quality. Seems like even the officials are not sure when are they going to complete this project.
