Following reports in the media, officials convened an urgent meeting and resolved to promptly commence asphalt and carpeting work.
In a statement to a local media outlet, a PMA officer announced that the authority is set to begin the asphalt work soon to restore the tracks of both the Lahore and Rawalpindi metro bus projects.
