01. Rehabilitation of Existing Road from Machli Chowk to KANUPP (5.9 km)

in District Keamari of Karachi, under the COVID-19 Emergency Grant of Component-1. The proposed subproject is the main arterial road of access to all residential community living around the road and the KANUPP. Although this access road is divided into two carriageways, the central island is missing in a small wider section towards the end of the road. In addition to that due to lack of repair and maintenance, there is a need for rehabilitation of the existing road and provision of the necessary road furniture and utilities.

Minimum Condition Grants

01. Rehabilitation of existing lights into LED lights along Mai Kolachi Road

The Mai Kolachi Road is a main arterial road of Karachi and was illuminated with street lights. However, due to lack of maintenance, stealing of cables and accessories and some road accidents this main arterial road is present without proper street illumination. The lights, which were previously installed (having high watts power from 1000 watts to 4000 watts), consume very high power. Being located near the sea-side, the electric poles and their arms also get rusted if not repainted frequently.

Considering the law-and-order situation and to provide illumination to the daily road commuter, the KMC is planning to rehabilitate the streetlights by providing LED lights, overhead cables, painting of poles and other accessories.

02. Replacement of Damaged / Broken Expansion Joints with Mono Block Joints
And Provision/Installation of Gratings of Composite Fiber Material
At Various Flyovers and Underpasses in Karachi

During the years 2000 to 2011, in order to ease the traffic inside the city and to minimize the travelling time, various flyovers and underpasses were constructed in the city of Karachi. With the passage of time, the expansion joints provided on various flyovers have broken down or are damaged badly, rendering them unserviceable. The steel gratings provided at drainage channels at underpasses have been stolen at various places resulting in traffic hazards and discomfort to road users along with traffic congestion at bridges and underpasses.

To maintain the traffic flow and to provide comfort to the users, the KMC is planning to replace the broken/damaged expansion joints with mono block joints and installation of gratings (composite fiber material offering no room for stealing) at under passes.

Tentative cost of the sub project is around PKR.100.00 million.

04. Construction and Rehabilitation of Badminton Court at Agha Khan Park

The Agha Khan Park is surrounded by houses and provides a sort of recreational facility to the local residents. In this park, a small open space is available, which can be used for a badminton courtyard. As for females, considering religious values, some closed and separate space is required for sports activities. To achieve this goal, in this phase KMC is planning to construct a badminton court for women.

As per tentative estimation the cost of proposed of sub project Badminton Court at Agha khan Park is approximately 15.00 million PKR.

05. Improvement/Rehabilitation of Road Sewerage System in Ghazi Dawood Barohi UC-02 Bakra Piri Pir Mahfooz Link Road, Main Bakra Piri to Malir Union Council UC-01 Gharibabad Bachal Khaskhil Goth Road & Sahibadad Goth, District Malir, KMC
