The important Karachi Azeempura Flyover is scheduled to be inaugurated on June 15, marking a major milestone in the city’s infrastructure development.
The 700-meter-long flyover is part of a larger transport project that also includes a four-lane road being constructed beneath it. The project is aimed at improving traffic flow in the area, which has long faced congestion issues.
Once completed and operational, the new infrastructure is expected to significantly reduce traffic problems and provide smoother commuting for daily travellers.
On the other hand, Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah visited Karachi’s development projects. During the visit, he ordered a ban on the entry of motorcycles on Shahrah-e-Bhutto and directed the immediate activation of the e-challan system. He also instructed that police check posts be established at every interchange. In addition, the Azeem Pura Flyover is scheduled to be opened on June 15.
Transport Minister Sharjeel Memon stated that work is simultaneously underway on mixed traffic lanes, boundary walls, drainage systems, and utility relocation.
According to details, the Chief Minister inspected the BRT Red Line Mixed Traffic Corridor, the under-construction Azeempura Flyover, and the recently inaugurated Shahrah-e-Bhutto during his visit.
After visiting Shahrah-e-Bhutto, he said the Azeempura Flyover would be inaugurated on June 15. He also issued orders to ensure public safety and traffic discipline on Shahrah-e-Bhutto through 24-hour police patrolling, a ban on motorcycles, and the immediate activation of the e-challan system.

Commissioner Karachi Hassan Naqvi, Additional IG Karachi Azad Khan, Secretary Transport Asad Zamin, Commander FWO Karachi Brigadier Adnan, CEO Trans Karachi Zubair Channa, CEO Water Board Ahmed Ali Siddiqui, and other relevant officers and engineers were also present at various locations.
