ISLAMABAD: In order to promote domestic harmony and ensure equitable opportunities of economic uplift for all the regions from what is generally considered as a game changer for the country — the Pakistan-China Economic Corridor — all the provincial capitals would be nodes of the corridor.
The Planning Commission claims that all the provincial capitals — Lahore, Peshawar, Karachi and Quetta — are “the agreed nodes” of the Economic Corridor.
About the economic nodes of the corridor, the Planning Commission earmarks Khunjerab, Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore, Sukkur, Karachi, Quetta and Gwadar, thus making it a net covering almost all the regional centres and the entire country.
Although, different major roads, highways and expressways would be built and upgraded to complete the gigantic project in the years to come, the under-construction Peshawar-Karachi Motorway would be the key part of the corridor. The Peshawar-Karachi Motorway project, which was started over 20 years ago, is now being built from Multan to Karachi and is expected to be completed in a few years time.
