It is anticipated that Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi or Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif will attend the July 5 inauguration ceremony.
The two routes that the buses will travel are “Nust to Pims” and “Pims to Bari Imam.”
The first route will have 13 stops spread across a distance of about 13 kilometers, with a bus arriving at each stop every 10 minutes.
The Diplomatic Enclave, G-7, G-6, Melody, Aabpara, Ataturk Road, Serena Hotel, Foreign Office, Radio Pakistan, and other significant landmarks will all be traversed by the second route.
The electric buses are a part of a bigger fleet of 200 buses, of which 70 are slated to arrive from Karachi and 60 from China. The electric buses landed in Islamabad last month.
These buses will be run by the CDA on 11 routes that connect Islamabad’s rural and urban districts.
The National Radio and Telecommunication Corporation (NRTC), a division of the Ministry of Defence, owns the buses, and the CDA will supply the contractor with supplies and fare payments ranging from Rs306 to Rs331 per kilometer.
Six charging stations have been constructed by the CDA at the Convention Center, and further facilities are being set up at the H-9 metro depot for the seventy buses that arrive from Karachi.
