M-3 motorway, Motorway in Punjab, Pakistan
The M-3 is a four-lane controlled-access highway that stretches across Punjab, connecting Lahore with the area around Abdul Hakeem. The route crosses several districts and includes modern service facilities along the way.
The motorway was completed in 2019 and became a key milestone in Pakistan's infrastructure development. It improved connections between existing highways and significantly modernized the national road network.
The motorway passes through multiple districts of Punjab, connecting communities and supporting the movement of agricultural products from rural areas to urban markets.
The motorway features several rest stops with fuel stations, restaurants, and rest facilities strategically placed along the route. Drivers should note that conditions can vary depending on the season and traffic volume.
The route features three specially designed railway bridges that allow trains to cross while traffic flows without interruption. These structures demonstrate how two transportation systems were engineered to safely operate above and below each other.
