The Sindh government has announced that it will launch its electric vehicle (EV) taxi service in September as part of its efforts to modernize public transportation across the province.
The decision was made during a meeting of the Transport and Mass Transit Department chaired by Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, where officials reviewed the progress of several transportation projects.
Sharjeel Memon said the EV taxi service will begin next month, providing residents with a modern, safe and environmentally friendly transportation option. Officials also told the meeting that the government plans to add 1,000 electric buses to the public transportation system in phases beginning later this year.
The meeting also reviewed the progress of the Red Line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project. Sharjeel Memon instructed officials to complete the construction of all Red Line BRT depots within the approved timeline.
He said the Sindh government remains committed to expanding sustainable public transportation and improving commuting options across the province.
