Infrastructure & services
As described in the scheme's approval documents. Progress on each item is reported on the Development page.
Roads & streets
Concrete-paved streets to LG&RD / TMA standards, with a 30 ft wide access road. The scheme sits beside Diyal Road, whose right of way is 39 ft wall to wall (C&W NOC No. 1014).
Sewerage
A piped sewerage system with 75 mm HDPE house connections, 150 mm street sewers and a 450 mm secondary sewer connecting to the existing 900 mm trunk sewer on Diyal Road. The design was provided to TMA. The EPA approval also sets conditions on sewage treatment — see Environment.
Electricity & street lights
Under condition (i) of the TMA approval, the main power supply and street lights are to be maintained by the owners of the scheme.
Water supply
The GEA report states there is no centralised water supply and plot owners install their own wells, as is common in D.I. Khan. The EPA decision describes individual bore holes and a tube well with an overhead water tank. Any common water facility will be announced on the Development page.
Solid waste
Waste is to be collected in bins and containers at the scheme's solid-waste site and transferred to the TMA's designated disposal site.
Natural gas
Gas connections were not being provided by SNGPL at the time of the environmental assessment (March 2024).
