Empty bathroom stalls have turned into piles of rubbish due to lack of water and sanitation equipment in the bathrooms
More than five months have passed since the PTI government's mega-project, the BRT was inaugurated by Prime Minister Imran Khan in Peshawar, but most bus stations have yet to have proper bathrooms for passengers.
Empty bathroom stalls have turned into piles of rubbish due to lack of water and sanitation equipment in the bathrooms.
Moreover, the stalls are reportedly taken over by drug addicts after sundown.
Additionally, three commercial plazas were also to be built to increase the project's revenue, which are still incomplete.
