Gwadar roads’ solarization gets underway in phases
The Gwadar Development Authority (GDA) has initiated a phased solarization project to light up the city’s main roads with solar-powered streetlights. The first phase has already begun on Marine Drive, while upcoming phases will extend to Syed Zahoor Hashmi Road, Airport Road, Gwadar Port Road, and more. This initiative enhances public safety, prevents electricity cable theft, and ensures reliable lighting during load-shedding. Building on earlier contributions from Chinese companies, the project reflects a sustainable push toward an eco-friendly urban Gwadar, fostering safer travel and extended commercial activities at night.
