Proposed Division of Lahore: Lahore North & Lahore South
(Subject to final Punjab Government notification)
The Punjab Government is in the process of dividing Lahore city district into two separate administrative districts: Lahore North and Lahore South. This major administrative reform aims to improve governance, reduce pressure on civic systems, and ensure faster development across the city.
📍 Lahore North – Expected Areas
Lahore North will mostly include older, central, and densely populated parts of the city, where the focus will be governance, regulation, and redevelopment rather than new expansion.
Likely areas in Lahore North:
-
Ravi Town
-
Shalimar Town
-
Wagah Town
-
Aziz Bhatti Town
-
Data Ganj Bakhsh Town
-
Samanabad Town
-
Gulberg (central parts)
-
Cantt (older zones)
Nature of Lahore North:
-
Mature residential and commercial markets
-
Limited large-scale new developments
-
Stable property prices with moderate growth
📍 Lahore South – Expected Areas (High-Growth Zone)
Lahore South is expected to cover new expansion corridors and planned developments, making it the main focus for future infrastructure and real estate growth.
Likely areas in Lahore South:
-
Bahria Town Lahore
-
Raiwind Road
-
Kings Town
-
Valencia
-
DHA Phase 8 & nearby extensions
-
Lake City
-
LDA Avenue
-
Central Park Housing Scheme
-
Southern parts of Gulberg (newer extensions)
Nature of Lahore South:
-
Rapid infrastructure development
-
New road networks and civic upgrades
-
High-rise, vertical & mixed-use projects
-
Strong demand for apartments on installments in Lahore
-
Prime location for shops for sale in Lahore
Why Lahore South Matters More for Investors
Historically, whenever a city expands administratively, newly defined districts receive higher development budgets and faster approvals.
That’s why areas like:
-
Bahria Town Lahore
-
Raiwind Road
-
Kings Town
are expected to see:
-
Faster price appreciation
-
Increased commercial activity
-
Rising demand for apartments for sale in Lahore
-
Strong interest in tech offices and commercial shops
