Though the massive reconstruction work at the Gaddafi Stadium will elevate the setting, the activity in and around the site has impacted the overall population, dealing with issues in commuting around the area.
People in general, who have been using the road for going from Ferozepur Road to the Liberty Market for quite a long time, are presently enduring the worst part of the refurbishment activity, which is happening nonstop.
As per the details given by the PCB on Wednesday, the uplift work will significantly build the seating capacity of the stadium from 21,500 to 34,000.
