CHIEF Minister Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif has directed the Lahore Transport Company to make a plan for plying 200 to 300 diesel buseson the road of the provincial metropolis next month, saying that the CNG buses should be inducted in the transport system in the second phase. He said subsidy should also be given on diesel buses to encourage investors.
Presiding over a meeting on Friday, the CM said public transport system was an indicator of the level of development of a country and no nation could progress without an efficient transport system. He said that keeping in view the importance of the transport system, the government was paying attention to the development of the sector and provision of modern transport facilities to the masses. He said that besides foreign investors, local investors and transport owners should also be encouraged.
Shahbaz said subsidy on diesel buses would encourage locally-manufactured diesel buses and local investors would be able to make the maximum investment in the sector. He said that in the first phase, up to 300 diesel buses should be brought on the roads immediately and most of them should be air-conditioned. He said an order should immediately be placed for the import of more CNG buses so that after diesel buses, the CNG buses could also be used for providing transport facilities to the citizens.
The chief minister directed the Transport secretary to submit recommendations for the provision of modern transport facilities in other major cities of the province on the pattern of Lahore.
Lahore Transport Company Chairman Tasneem Noorani gave a briefing to the meeting while MPA Mohsin Latif, the Transport secretary, Lahore Commissioner, DIGTraffic as well as senior officers concerned were present.
