Rawalpindi-Islamabad Metrobus near The Centaurus
The Rawalpindi-Islamabad Metrobus is a 24 km (14.9 mi) bus fast transit system that serves the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad in Pakistan. It uses dedicated bus lanes for all of its route covering 24 bus stations. This service covers a huge distance from city Saddar, Rawalpindi to Pak-(office of secretaries), Islamabad. This service is very reliable and consistent, and the labour force as well as students are using this government gave/given service on a daily basis. It has reduced the time consumption by reducing the route. Now this bus service is being extended to more areas in Islamabad that include areas near G-13 and H-12. Work is now being done to keep it along the Kashmir Highway.
