APP

Islamabad: A newly constructed parking facility at the Pak Secretariat has been officially opened for government employees and the general public, aiming to ease long-standing parking challenges in Islamabad’s federal administrative hub.

Spanning approximately 133,729 square feet, the facility can accommodate a large number of vehicles, providing relief to employees of key government offices and visitors to the area, a CDA spokesperson said.

The spokesperson noted that the project also benefits personnel working in nearby government and semi-government offices. Quoting Chairman CDA and Chief Commissioner Islamabad Muhammad Ali Randhawa, he said, “This initiative is part of our ongoing efforts to improve civic facilities and develop Islamabad into a well-planned, public-friendly city. Resolving a fundamental issue like parking will reduce traffic congestion and save citizens valuable time and energy.”

The CDA chairman also praised the teams involved in the project, emphasizing that the facility would enhance convenience for both employees and the public. He stressed that vehicles must be parked only in designated spaces and that clear signboards would guide visitors to ensure an organized and efficient system.

High standards of security, lighting, and cleanliness are to be maintained for public safety and comfort. Looking ahead, Chairman CDA indicated that similar modern parking projects will be introduced in other busy areas of Islamabad to address growing vehicle pressure and population density.

“CDA is committed to creating every possible convenience for citizens, and all available resources are being utilized to achieve this,” the spokesperson added.
