LDA Intensifies Crackdown on Illegal Constructions and Initiates Development in Wapda Town
The Lahore Development Authority's Town Planning Wing has intensified a crackdown on illegal commercial constructions across the city, including in Wapda Town. As part of a recent operation in early April 2026, the authority sealed 60 properties in Wapda Town alone for illegal commercial use. These operations are part of a broader effort to enforce building regulations and recover commercial fees. In parallel, a community update also announced the upcoming launch of a new hospital equipped with 24/7 emergency services in Wapda Town, signaling ongoing development in the area's infrastructure.
Approval of New High-Speed Corridor to Connect Wapda Town to Central Lahore
A major infrastructure project has been approved: a new high-speed corridor/expressway from Rafique Kareem Road in Wapda Town to Pine Avenue/Union Road. The route will pass through PIA Housing Scheme, College Road (Township), Township Market, and Amanah Mall, ending near Arfa Kareem Tower. The Lahore Development Authority prepared the plan swiftly, secured additional development funds from the Chief Minister of Punjab, and submitted it to WASA for coordination. The project promises to dramatically reduce travel times from Wapda Town, Johar Town, and Township towards Ferozepur Road and central Lahore.
