Peshawar to Karachi track was the first which was based on a length of 1872km in nineteenth
century from 1861 to 1900. In the first place the track was completely operational yet with the
progression of time the current track was not up to the degree of meeting Peshawar city locally. A
portion of the nearby tracks comes in air terminal and markets. Because of encroachments on the
sides of railroad tracks the railroad activities are upset as a result of the nearby merchants doing
organizations on and the sides of the track which has lead us to numerous mishaps and influencing

public fascination in use Pakistan railroad. Facilitating of reach of public to their objections from
neighborhood stations.

1. Current condition of available service.

2. Existing infrastructure of railway in Peshawar.

7. Sustainable remodeling of railway track.

4. METHODOLOGY:

. 1. Existing track analysis:

First we will visit to primary concerns of the track for finding the
imprints for doing handle overview of our undertaking
2. Mapping through GIS:
We will play out all the exercises with the assistance of GIS through
aerial photography or aerial survey.
3. Identifying confined spots:
Distinguishing proof of the relative multitude of harmed, burst and
non-functional spots of the track.
4. Solution to remodel and re-design of each spot:
In the wake of finding the imprints and getting
the real factors, defects, data and subtleties we will make the checked focuses in 3d and 2d.
5. Comparison in terms of cost:
Contrasting and other public vehicle ventures like BRT as far as
development, upkeep and benefit to association. Furthermore, charge to overall population.
5. PROJECT SCHEDULE:
