Controversial Floating Restaurant Project on Lahore Canal Advances Amid Legal and Environmental Challenges

The Parks and Horticulture Authority (PHA), in collaboration with NESPAK and the Irrigation Department, is pushing forward with a Rs4.9 billion floating restaurant project on the historic Lahore Canal near Harbanspura and Jallo Park. Construction, which includes extensive dredging to deepen and widen the canal, began in early January 2026, with an anticipated completion date in June 2026. The three-storey structure is designed to accommodate 80-200 diners and include amenities like parking, cafés, and play areas. The project has sparked intense public debate and legal action, as environmentalists and residents protest the removal of mature trees along the Canal Road greenbelt. A petition filed in the Lahore High Court in early January argues the project violates the Lahore Canal Heritage Park Act 2013, which protects the canal corridor from construction. Officials maintain the venture will boost tourism and recreation.
