Cost RRT Corridor Under Under (US$ million) Elevated Total Elevated Total Ground Ground Corridor-I Potential ridership parameters RRT Corridor RRT Corridor- I Total No. of Passengers (1,000 per / day) Maximum Demand at a Section (1,000 / day) Pre-feasibility for this Corridor initially for BRT and convertible to LRT / MRT in 2 nd Phase would be ready by JICA study team in June 2012 under Karachi Transportation Improvement Study Project. Provincial Assembly has passed PPP act in 2010 and GOS constituted a PPP Board headed by Chief Minister, Sindh. This would provide legal umbrella for potential investors and enhance the comfort level Credit financing from foreign investors on Govt. to Govt. basis. Peak Hour / Peak Direction Traffic (per / hour) 1 1, ,400 International Investors would be welcome for implementation of the project
