Developing countries like Pakistan are growing very rapidly. With a fast paced economy, therein lays an immense need to develop efficient transportation systems and networks to boost the global trade, connect the people, ensure safety and meet the customer demands. Peshawar, capital city of Khyber-Pukhtunkhwa province of Pakistan, lies just below the lower slopes of Hindus-Kush mountain range on the road leading to central Asian states, has recently seen surge in its population, partially due to migration. This population boom has burdened the transportation system of Peshawar which is already in fragile state. Hence, this paper looks to identify solutions to reshape the transportation network of Peshawar which will help in improving the mobility of the people and in bolstering the economic foot print not only in Pakistan but also in the world.
