Lahore set to become first Asian city with environment-friendly roads

CBD officials said the concept aimed to modernise the city’s infrastructure and improve the quality of life for its residents.

Blue Roads are designed to offer a sustainable alternative to traditional asphalt roads, incorporating heat observation and energy-conserving features to reduce pollution and promote a healthier environment.

These innovative roads utilise a specialised coating that reflects sunlight, reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the road surface. In addition, the reflective coating improves visibility for drivers at night, improving road safety.
