It was previously known as “Dalmia Ground” due to the then Dalmia Cement Factory which existed in its close vicinity in the past. In this football ground, there is a huge space that will be improved and rehabilitated.
Environmental & Social Screening ReportThe proposed scheme is the main access road for all the people living and doing business in the area. Due to lack of proper periodic repair and maintenance, the road is in a dilapidated condition and there is a need for rehabilitation of the existing road and provision of the necessary allied road infrastructure like road side furniture and utilities. The access to Hanif Shaheed Park is also through this peripheral road. The road is connected to Jinnah Road, a collector road of Manzoor Colony, which that joins with the main arterial, Shaheed Millat Road. Therefore, its rehabilitation will improve the accessibility and connectivity of the local community not only to Hanif Shaheed Park/playground but also with the other areas.
