Pak Metro

Can you tell me in detail about Lahore Metro or Lahore Rapid Mass Transit System (LRMTS) in Pakistan?

[sumit]

The Lahore Metro or Lahore Rapid Mass Transit System (LRMTS) is an under construction rapid transit system (metro train system) for Lahore, the second largest city of Pakistan.

First proposed in 1991 and in 2012 it was abandoned by the Punjab government in favour of the more cost–effective Lahore Metro Bus System which opened in February 2013.

However, the Punjab Government decided to restart development on the Lahore Metro as a $1.6 billion project with Chinese assistance.

The Orange Line, which will be 27.1-kilometre (16.8 mi) long (25.4 kilometers (15.8 mi) of which will be elevated), will be the first line of the project and is under construction.

The work on the project is in progress and the Metro Train is planned to be inaugurated on by Nov 2017
