In addition to the new berth, construction is underway for a 15-kilometer road connecting Zero Point in Gwadar to the Coastal Highway. Simultaneously, a railway track is being laid adjacent to this road, promoting efficient transportation and connectivity in the region.
Furthermore, Gwadar is set to witness the completion of a 12-kilometer-long airstrip at the new Gwadar International Airport within the coming year. This infrastructure development aims to boost the city's connectivity and accessibility, contributing to its growth and economic potential.
