LAHORE: The Pakistan Railways has devised a plan to develop green corridor in collaboration with the provincial government.
A patch nearly 40 kilometres in length between Shahdara and Raiwind will be used to develop a green corridor on either side of the track.
According to the PR official, PR Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique was taking keen interest in the development of greenbelt where play areas, jogging tracks, cafeterias, gymnasiums, cycling track and beautiful sitting areas for common citizens would be set up.
The minister was also given a briefing on Saturday on Shahdara-Raiwind Railway Green Corridor project, he said.
International standard swings and slides for children would be installed and the Punjab Horticulture Authority had been directed by the minister in this regard.
These play areas will be made on 33 different points on the greenbelt along the track from Shahdara to Raiwind, which would be 80 kilometer long altogether on both sides of the track, he said.
