Lahore: Tuesday, April 11, 2023. Punjab Central Business District Development Authority (PCBDDA) has made CBD Punjab Boulevard and Underpass and its adjoining roads functional for traffic in a record time of four months.

The CBD Punjab Boulevard and Underpass connect the Barket Market to Liberty and vice versa, with three lanes on both sides of the underpass now open to traffic. In addition, the carriage lane and service lane on Ali Zaib Road are also operational for traffic coming from Firdous Market towards Liberty and Barket Market.
