The Gwadar Development Authority has approved a major phased development programme worth approximately PKR 280 billion under the second phase of the Gwadar Master Plan 2025–2035, marking an important step toward the long-term urban and economic transformation of the port city.
The approval was granted during a high-level meeting chaired by GDA Director General Moeenur Rehman Khan, where officials reviewed and finalised the authority’s upcoming 10 year development roadmap. The plan is aimed at transforming Gwadar into a modern, smart, eco-friendly and globally competitive port city.
During the meeting, officials were briefed that the GDA is preparing a comprehensive PC-I based development programme, which will be submitted first to the provincial government and later forwarded to the federal government for final approval. Authorities expect the proposed programme to be included in the 2026–27 development portfolio.
Deputy Director Town Planning Abdul Razzaq informed the meeting that the development plan will bring together multiple ongoing and future initiatives, including the GDA’s existing business plan. He said the objective is to ensure coordinated, practical and effective implementation of the Gwadar Master Plan.
According to officials, the phased development model will help streamline infrastructure expansion, urban planning, commercial growth and civic improvement projects over the next decade. The plan is also expected to support Gwadar’s wider strategic role as an emerging port city linked with regional trade and economic activity.
The GDA believes the new roadmap will provide a clear framework for sustainable development, improved urban services and investment-friendly planning, while aligning Gwadar’s growth with long-term economic and strategic objectives.
