LAHORE (Dunya News) – Pakistan has decided to install state-of-the-art air traffic control systems at its two busiest airports, Karachi and Lahore, in a move aimed at improving aviation safety and operational efficiency.
Officials from the Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA) said the new systems will enhance monitoring and management of air traffic, enabling smoother coordination of flights amid growing aerial activity.
The initiative also includes the introduction of an advanced flight management system for the Karachi and Lahore Flight Information Regions, which will significantly improve guidance and surveillance capabilities.
According to PAA authorities, the Central Development Working Party has already approved the PC-1 of the project, paving the way for its implementation.
Officials noted that increasing air traffic has made it essential to replace outdated systems with modern technology to ensure safer and more efficient flight operations.
The PAA is expected to issue an international tender for the project within the next few days, after which the installation process will begin.
