Gulam Nabi Colony in Lahore is undergoing a major municipal upgrade funded by the provincial government with an allocation of approximately PKR 160 million. The project involves the reconstruction of about 90 streets, installation of modern tuff-tile paving, improvement of the sewage network, enhancement of street lighting and cleanliness, and the reopening of the colony’s main road after repairs—aiming to boost local commerce and residents’ quality of life.
A large-scale sewerage infrastructure project — the 'Sewerage System from Larech Colony to Gulshan-e-Ravi' — is underway in central Lahore, passing through densely commercialized zones near Gulam Nabi Colony. While the colony itself is not directly named as a primary impact zone, its proximity to key alignments (e.g., Line A along Allama Iqbal Road and Line C near Babu Sabu Nonariyan Road) places it within the corridor of temporary business disruption, access restrictions, and livelihood impacts affecting 17 businesses and 30 employees for ~4 months, with compensation and skill development support provided.
