Islamabad to Get State-of-the-Art Theme Park and Cable Car

The Chairman of the Capital Development Authority (CDA), Chief Commissioner of Islamabad, and Director General of Civil Defense, Muhammad Ali Randhawa, presided over the 75th meeting of the CDA Development Working Party (CDA-DWP) held today at CDA Headquarters.

The meeting was attended by senior officials from the Planning, Development & Special Initiatives Division, Ministry of Interior, Finance Division, Ministry of Climate Change, CDA Board members, and representatives from relevant government formations.

During the meeting, the CDA-DWP approved several key initiatives aimed at enhancing Islamabad’s tourism infrastructure and recreational offerings. Notably, the approval included the PC-II for hiring consultancy services to conduct feasibility studies and prepare detailed designs for three major projects:

A state-of-the-art theme park
An internationally compliant Ferris wheel
A panoramic cable car system providing breathtaking views of Islamabad’s scenic landscapes

Chairman CDA Muhammad Ali Randhawa highlighted Islamabad’s growing reputation as a premier tourist destination, serving over two million residents along with increasing domestic and international visitors. He stated, “These initiatives demonstrate CDA’s commitment to delivering world-class recreational amenities while addressing the city’s urban development needs.”

The projects are designed to position Islamabad as a regional tourism hub, generating employment opportunities, stimulating local business growth, and introducing eco-friendly transportation solutions to reduce traffic congestion, such as the cable car system.

The approved PC-II initiates a six-month feasibility phase. Consultancy firms will first conduct detailed technical and environmental studies. Following the positive feasibility outcomes, transaction advisors will be engaged to oversee the projects’ implementation, ensuring adherence to international standards and timely completion.

These ambitious projects are expected to significantly improve tourist infrastructure, create jobs, and preserve Islamabad’s natural beauty through sustainable and innovative designs.
