The Local Bodies Department has assured residents that the road width for commercial areas would not be reduced, as proposed in the Punjab Municipal Building Bylaws.
The department, in the draft Punjab Municipal Building Bylaws, has proposed 40-foot-wide road for commercial plots of up to 250 sq yds, 50-foot-wide road for commercial plots between 250 sq yds and 500 sq yds and 60-foot-wide road for plots between 500 sq yds and 5,000 sq yds. The department has sought public comments on draft amendments to the bylaws.
