The embankment will be a 30-foot-tall protective structure, covering all blocks of the society. Beyond its primary role in flood defense, it will also be beautified and developed into a jogging and walking track, exclusively for Park View City members, blending safety with lifestyle enhancement.

The project is scheduled to be completed within 100 days, ensuring timely relief and long-term protection for residents.

Speaking at the occasion, Chairman Abdul Aleem Khan emphasised:

The groundbreaking marks the beginning of what Park View City describes as a “new chapter of safety, innovation, and progress,” aligning with its broader development vision to deliver modern amenities alongside resilient infrastructure.
