A safe and secure transportation system is extremely important for Punjab’s economic progress and improvement of quality of life. The mobility challenges posed by rapid urbanization and increase in population can be addressed by connecting people, regions, and communities to one another.Transport & Masstransit Department has made its best efforts to improve road safety, increase public transport coverage provide quality service and reduce environmental pollution. The department has successfully implemented Mass Transit System in Lahore, Rawalpindi & Multan. Over the next five years, it will be ensured that our plans for the transport sector are integrated & sustainable and that the transportation system is safe and reliable in facilitating trade and movement of people and goods in an efficient way.
I look forward to working closely with stakeholders from across the province to meet the commitments outlined in mandate of the Transport & Masstransit Department and to make strategic investments in transportation system to benefit the people of Punjab province in the years to come.
