Speedo Bus FR-12 route changed for an indefinite period of time

Punjab MetroBus Authority (PMA) and Daewoo has temporarily changed the route plan of FR-12 which travels from RA bazar to Civil Secretariat. This decision has been taken after the construction of remaining underground portion Orange line has started on GPO chowk, Mall road.



Orange Line metro train is supposed to pass though the busy intersection of GPO chowk, Mall road. It will be a portion of underground section which also includes Central Station of Orange line. Work on this portion was not yet started as Supreme court had put a stay order some 22 months ago. Now when court has removed the stay order, construction on this portion has started with full swing.

To speed up the work and timely completion of this project, city traffic police has closed GPO chowk for three months which has resulted in traffic chaos and huge traffic jam in this region. Also affecting the operation of Speedo Bus Service FR-12 which is one of the busiest routes of the city.

According to speedo bus attendants, FR-12 whose routine route was from RA bazar to Civil Secretariat, instead of keep going on Mall road will now take turn at Alhamra hall signal near Lahore Zoo, going all the way to Railway station. According to attendants, this route change is temporary and will be back to routine route as soon as GPO chowk is cleared.

Routine route: RA bazar, PAF market, Girja chowk, Fortress stadium, Canal bridge, Lahore Zoo, Chairing Cross, Regal chowk, Anarkali, PMG chowk, Civil Secretariat.



Changed route: RA bazar, PAF market, Girja chowk, Fortress stadium, Canal bridge, Lahore Zoo, Aiwan-e-Iqbal, Shimla pahari, Empress road, Railway station.




How to travel from RA bazar to Civil Secretariat and vice versa

As we have already mentioned that FR-12 is one of the busiest route of the city as it is passing through the major commercial and downtown areas of the city. Most of the government offices and famous educational institutions are situated along this route. Therefore a huge chunk of people will be affected with this route change decision. But still there are other ways people can commute between these points:

To Travel from RA bazar to Regal chowk, Anarkali and Secretariat: Take FR-12 from RA bazar and make stop at Lahore zoo. Then take four stroke rickshaw which will charge you Rs. 20 to go further towards Anarkali and Civil Secretariat. Same method if you are travelling from Secretariat to RA bazar.

To travel from RA bazar to Secratariat: Take FR-15 from RA bazar which will drop you at Civil Secretariat. It goes via Cavalry Ground, Gulberg and Jail road. Another option is to take FR-15 and make stop at Kalma chowk and then take metro bus to go Civil Secretariat. Same method if you are travelling vice versa.
