The underpass, named ‘Rustam e Zaman The Great Gamma Crossing,’ pays tribute to national hero and world champion Gamma Pehlawan.
It marks a significant infrastructure project, with a level 1 underpass extending 700 meters from Barkat Market to Canal Road and a level 2 underpass covering 1.4 km from Jinnah Hospital to Barkat Market.
