City Nazim Syed Mustafa Kamal has said the old sewerage lines in all areas of the city including Orangi will be replaced along with the construction of roads so that a solution is made possible to difficulties in the wake of leaking sewerage lines.
He took the decision during a late night visit to various parts of Orangi Town during which he reviewed the problems caused by leakages in sewerage lines and the bottlenecks in the way of construction of roads.
City Nazim decided that no road would be constructed without drainage because in the absence of quality drains and sagging lines the roads does not last longer and every now and then these are reconstructed due to stagnant sewerage and rainwater.
Till wee hours of the morning, Mustafa Kamal inspected the under-construction roads in Orangi and said all projects should be completed in co-ordination with the town administration.
He said no project will be conceived one way and consultation of the respective Town Nazims will be essential and also the opinion of people residing there.
The City Nazim visited various parts of the town and also spoke to residents about their problems.
During the visit the City Nazim inspected Shahrah Qadafi from Qasba More to German School, Gulshan-e-Bahar, Manghopir Road from Pirabad to Sarhad petrol Pump, Banaras Chowk to Toori Bangash Chowk and Shahrah Orangi and was briefed about the details of constructed projects.
The DCO Karachi Fazlur Rehman and Town Nazims were also present on the occasion.
During visit to Shahrah Orangi Mustafa Kamal was informed that this 6.5 km road is being constructed at a cost of Rs 170 million. He was informed that 50 percent work has been completed and the remaining work is delayed due to the shifting of 129 electricity poles.
City Nazim directed the DCO to contact the KESC to get the work done expeditiously.
He was informed that Manghopir Road would be 6 km long and completed in two phases. It will have two tracks of 36 feet width instead of 24 feet and where ever drains are not included, the same would also be constructed.
