Sindh Completes Rehabilitation of 141 Flood-Hit Farm-to-Market Roads Across 19 Districts

Sindh: Sindh has completed rehabilitation of 141 flood-hit farm-to-market roads spanning 848.7 kilometres across 19 districts. The extensive restoration effort marks a major step in improving infrastructure that was severely affected by floods, facilitating better connectivity for local farmers and markets.

According to Radio Pakistan, the rehabilitated roads cover flood-hit districts of Jamshoro, Dadu, Naushahro Feroze, Thatta, Sujawal, Hyderabad, Matiari, Tando Allahyar, Badin, Tharparkar, Sanghar, Mirpurkhas, Shaheed Benazirabad, Larkana, Umerkot, Khairpur, Shikarpur, Kambar Shahdadkot, and Sukkur. The restoration of these roads is crucial for ensuring the efficient transport of goods and services, which is essential for the economic recovery of these regions.

The completion of farm-to-market roads is significant because rural road connectivity is a major bottleneck in post-flood recovery. With the roads now operational, local farmers can more easily access markets, which is expected to boost local economies and aid in the overall recovery process following the devastating floods.
