Lahore is one of the most accessible cities of [[Pakistan]]. In addition to the historic [[Grand Trunk Road]] (G.T. road), a motorway was completed in [[2000]], from Lahore to [[Islamabad]]. Due to Lahore ever increasing traffic problems the Government introduced many underpasses to ease conjestions and prevent traffic jams. According to official figures, Lahore has the highest number of underpasses in Pakistan, due to an attempt by the government to link one end of the city to the other end.
