Islamabad-Rawalpindi Metrobus service suspensions

Overview

The Metrobus service between Islamabad and Rawalpindi has faced partial suspensions due to security and administrative requirements.

Initially, service was partially suspended to accommodate security and traffic arrangements for the Pakistan-Sri Lanka T20 International cricket series. During this period, operations between Kashmir Highway and Pak Secretariat were halted, while buses continued to run between Saddar Station in Rawalpindi and Faiz Ahmed Faiz Station in Islamabad.

Subsequently, the district administration implemented further operational changes. Service was completely halted on the route from IJP Road to Pak Secretariat, though the segment from Saddar Station to Faizabad remained operational. Authorities indicated that the restoration of affected routes would depend on improving conditions and further instructions.
