The metro bus project from Peshawar Mor to New Islamabad Airport now seems to be on track as city managers after opening financial bids are all set to place orders for procuring 30 buses.
The Capital Development Authority (CDA) took over the project in March this year on the direction of the federal government from National Highway Authority.
For the fiscal year 2020-21, the government has earmarked Rs300 million for this project.
The CDA’s technical committee has opened financial bids of companies and an international company – Higher Bus Company Limited, turned to be lowest bidder by submitting bid of Rs728 million for 30 buses.
