The 53-kilometre Faisalabad–Pindi Bhattian section is being widened from four to six lanes, with new lighting, green belts and rest areas also planned.

The government is targeting the completion of the Faisalabad–Pindi Bhattian section of the M-4 Motorway by the start of 2027 as work continues to upgrade the route into a six-lane highway.

Federal Minister for Communications Abdul Aleem Khan shared the timeline during a visit to the ongoing project at Kamalpur Interchange. The 53-kilometre section is being expanded from four to six lanes to improve traffic flow and provide safer travel for motorists.

During the visit, the minister directed the National Highway Authority (NHA) and construction teams to increase the number of machines and workers to speed up construction. He also stressed that work must meet quality standards and that no compromise would be accepted to meet the deadline.

The upgraded section is also expected to receive several improvements. These include trees along both sides of the motorway, green belts in the central section, date palm trees, proper lighting and modern rest areas for travellers.

The minister directed officials to complete the designs of the rest areas within one week and ensure full lighting arrangements along the Faisalabad–Pindi Bhattian route.

The project is being carried out in three sections, with the National Logistics Cell (NLC) and other construction organisations involved. The NHA is arranging the project funds through its own resources.

Once completed, the six-lane section is expected to improve traffic movement between Faisalabad and Pindi Bhattian and make travel more convenient for commuters.

Note: Early 2027 is the latest completion target announced by the minister. The project has not yet been declared complete.
