What about heaps of garbage and dust on the ground and roads? Is there can excuse for not cleaning the ground as well?The reason is coastal cities have humid air which carries sea spray that accumulates on the walls of buildings. Lack of rain causes this to form thick layers. The air density is high due to water molecules hence the pollution level increases. This is visible at night from miles when approaching from the sea.
I did not notice many good buses with predesignated routes in Karachi.Public transport is there but it can not cope up with the population. Circular railway is non functional otherwise it would have taken most of the traffic.
Lahore is also expanding by the day. Water supply remains good nonetheless.The problem of plants is there because every place is being constructed as the population is growing by the day.
Build a plant to address this problem, my friend. Don't give me excuses.Water flows from North Karachi is South so water scarcity is natural. Soil water is sea water as Karachi is mostly reclaimed land from the sea.
This is due to construction work in different parts of the city. You cannot control the flow of dust while mega-projects are in progress. Nonetheless, Lahore is much cleaner than Karachi. Government invests money in cleaning roads and vice versa here.Lahore is not as clean as it used to be 15 years back.
Excuse me! Taxi services are available in Lahore. But you need to make a call.It lacks taxis it is all Riksha and Ching chi.. Tanga were replaced by riksha and now they are the masters.
When I reached Lahore through a Train, I hired a Taxi to take me home.
Don't expect a Taxi moving around in the roads. Petrol is not cheap in our country.
Metro already covers many areas. It is a blessing for those who live in surrounding areas.The metro is only for Ferozpur road...till they connect it with the other city it does not fulfill the requirement.
However, we are getting Orange Metro and Blue Metro in the near future that will cover additional areas. Beat it.
Other than Metro, we have high quality bus services with predesignated routes across the city. I have utilized public transport in Lahore for years and I have never been disappointed.
Don't make silly assumptions.
DHA phase 7 is close to border but behind Barki:You were talking about superior planning of Lahore...soon Gujranwala will be added to Lahore already DHA Lahore has almost reached Wagha...
DHA is not expanding towards the border any more. The city will now expand towards the West.
Because roads are under construction. These areas will be linked in the near future through Ring Road and others.Without personal car one can not travel from Baharia Town to DHA as there is no clean public transport...So much so for your superior planning.
Yes, Lahore benefits from superior planning than Karachi. Deal with it.
