Punjab continues its push toward sustainable public transport as Chakwal becomes the latest district to receive a fleet of electric buses. The provincial government confirmed that the rollout is part of an expanding initiative to introduce clean, efficient, and modern travel options across Punjab.
Officials stated that the new electric buses will operate on key routes within the district, providing affordable and environmentally friendly transportation for daily commuters, students, and workers. The initiative is expected to significantly cut fuel consumption and reduce harmful emissions, aligning with the government’s broader climate and modernization goals.
Transport authorities highlighted that maintenance facilities and charging stations have already been set up in Chakwal to ensure smooth operations. The project has been welcomed by residents, who say the modern buses will improve comfort, reduce travel time, and enhance the overall commuting experience.
With Lahore, Rawalpindi, and other major cities already benefitting from electric bus services, Chakwal’s inclusion marks another step in Punjab’s commitment to a cleaner and more connected future.
