Punjab Approves 'One Punjab, One Standard' Policy to Unify Infrastructure Design

Work will begin once a province-wide design manual receives final approval alongside an oversight framework.

Overview

  • The policy sets a single design framework for roads, green belts, signboards and footpaths across Punjab.
  • Standard architectural templates will apply to schools, hospitals, bus stops and other public buildings.
  • Officials reached an in-principle decision to establish an autonomous unit to oversee compliance and urban design.
  • Uniform designs for roadside kiosks and small shop cabins were reviewed to reduce visual clutter and improve order.
  • The chief minister directed drafting of a comprehensive design manual, with rollout contingent on its approval and related rules.
