A five-year transportation plan to implement a state-of-the-art Automated Rapid Transport (ART) system throughout the province has been authorized by Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz.
ART is a worldwide successful mass transit system that is utilized in Malaysia, Abu Dhabi, and Qatar, according to CM Maryam, who chaired a special video-link meeting on transportation.
In comparison to traditional buses, it occupies less rod area. She oversaw a project trial run right away.
Three-coach buses that can carry more than 300 passengers, solar-powered charging, fast-charging stations, Wi-Fi, and monitoring cameras are all part of the ART system.
The buses will first be introduced in Lahore, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala before gradually reaching 30 cities.
In order to raise the standard of living for its population, Maryam Nawaz underlined the necessity of a contemporary transportation infrastructure.
