Zero Point Interchange, Road interchange in Islamabad, Pakistan
Zero Point Interchange is a road junction in Islamabad where three major highways meet through a system of elevated bridges and connecting ramps. The structure uses multiple levels to separate traffic flows and allow vehicles to move between routes without crossing paths.
Planning for this junction began in the early 2000s to handle growing traffic demands across Islamabad's expanding road network. Construction started after several years of preparation and took around four years to complete before opening to traffic.
This interchange represents Pakistan's advancement in urban development, marking a shift toward modern transportation solutions in the nation's capital region.
Drive through during daylight hours when traffic signals work clearly and visibility is best for navigating the different levels. All entry and exit ramps are clearly marked, making it easier to find your way if you are unfamiliar with the junction.
Special underground anchoring techniques were used during construction to stabilize the soil near an existing monument without disturbing it. This careful engineering approach shows how the project balanced modern infrastructure with protecting what was already there.
