LAHORE : Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has decided to introduce province-wide infrastructure and design standardisation to ensure uniform development and improved urban discipline. Under the plan, roads, green belts, signboards and footpaths across the province will follow a standardised design. Officials discussed the creation of an autonomous authority to oversee standardisation and urban design reforms to transform Punjab’s infrastructure landscape. The proposal to introduce uniform designs for roadside kiosks and small shop cabins along highways was also reviewed. Maryam Nawaz added that uniform infrastructure and road furniture designs enhance a city’s aesthetic appeal and create a cohesive urban identity across the province.
