The first time I visited Faisalabad in May 1980, I found it to be dirty and dusty. Just this week I spent two days in Faisalabad and found it a totally different place with good well-built roads and well maintained gardens on the sides of the road. Yes the Clock Tower was dirty then and is still dirty now.
I believe in a few more years Faisalabad will become one of the best cities to live in Pakistan. I didn’t notice any traffic jams there as one finds in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Maybe Faisalabad is a better planned city with wide open roads. There is much that the CDA and RDA can learn from the FDA, especially regarding building of roads and landscaping. There was no major road that was broken and pot-holed like the Islamabad Expressway. The people who have helped transform Faisalabad need to be commended.
