The Punjab government has approved a major upgrade project for Nawaz Sharif Colony in Lahore as part of its urban-development program. The plan includes improvements to road paving, sewage drainage, and water-supply networks, along with the construction of a new community centre and expansion of green spaces. Work is slated to begin in June 2026 and be completed by the end of 2027. Local officials have warned residents of potential temporary disruptions to traffic and water services during the construction phase.
Under Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif's Lahore Development Program (LDP), the district administration is rapidly progressing with the construction and rehabilitation of unpaved and damaged streets across the city. The program aims to provide modern facilities through integrated, transparent, and sustainable projects, focusing on better infrastructure and a prosperous Lahore. The Deputy Commissioner regularly inspects projects, including in Tehsil Raiwind, directing departments to ensure quality, transparency, and timely completion.
