Connecting Punjab to Balochistan

Multan (Punjab) to Qila Saifullah (Balochistan)

The National Highway 70, or the N-70, is one of the National Highways of Pakistan. The N-70 runs in between the mighty Sulaiman Mountains, lush green farmlands of Multan and Dera Ghazi Khan's districts, and you may also experience the fascinating sceneries of MusaKhel, Makhter region, and empty and beautiful areas from Loralai to Qilla Saifullah.

Its total length is 440 kilometres (270 mi) divided into 254 kilometres (158 mi) in Balochistan and the remaining 186 km (116 mi) in the Punjab.

Route
The highway starts right after the junction of N-5 in the suburbs of Multan and runs towards Muzaffargarh after crossing river Chenab and then river Indus to enter D.G Khan. After D.G Khan it starts ascending on Sulemaan range and through Girdu Pass and Fort Munro it enters in Balochistan.

The first town in Balochistan province is Rakni and then goes to Makhter region after passing long MusaKhel region and then Loralai and finally ends near Qilla Saifullah at the junction of N-50.

NHA to link CPEC M-14 with Pak-Afghan border

The federal government has decided to connect Ghulam Khan in North Waziristan with Motorway 14 (M-14), a project of the western alignment route of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) via a 184km-long Motorway.

According to Gwadar Pro on Tuesday, the National Highway Authority (NHA) on Monday issued a request for proposal (RFP) of consultancy services for the Feasibility Study and Detailed Design for the Construction of the Motorway from Ghulam Khan to Esa Khel Interchange (184km approx).

The project will be financed by the Federal Government through PSDP 2022-23 through separate head/allocation.
In this regard, a pre-proposal conference on the project will be held on July 19, 2022, at NHA headquarters in Islamabad while procurement will be carried out by adopting the “Single Stage Two Envelops” procedure.

The proposals complete in all respects in accordance with the instructions provided in the RFP document in sealed envelopes, which should reach on or before August 10, 2022.

Esa Khel Interchange is located over M-14 in Mianwali district of Punjab, which is in proximity to the Lakki Marwat district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). Between Mianwali and Ghulam Khan falls Bannu district of KP. After Torkham and Chaman, Ghulam Khan is the third most important crossing between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Afghanistan has already started benefiting from Gwadar Port and the country received the first consignment of bulk cargo from the United Arab Emirates in July 2020. Ghulam Khan crossing, at the Pak-Afghan border point, is the shortest route connecting CPEC’s western route with Afghanistan, Central Asian States and beyond.

Feasibility Study Completed on Sept 9th: Tender issued for Feasibility Study - July 8th, 2022
Evaluation Report Completed on Nov 24th: Announcement Of Evaluation Report - Sept 9th, 2022
