1.  Location and Accessibility:

The RUDA Chahar Bagh is ideally situated along Lahore’s Ring Road close to the Shareef Pura Interchange making it easy to get to the city’s main locations while maintaining a peaceful atmosphere. In addition, it is situated in the Ravi area, which is undergoing rapid development and has benefited from RUDA’s investments in infrastructure such as road enhancements, water supply, and green space. It has dedicated approved Ring Road Interchange, which will land directly into the society. Al Jalil Garden and Al Rehman Garden are both close to major highways but they don’t have the same level of delivery commitment as RUDA.

It has dedicated parks, jogging tracks, and green belts, as well as an organic market. It is one of a few projects devoted to reducing carbon emissions to zero, in line with global urban sustainability standards.

In contrast, Al Raheem Garden and Bismillah Housing Society provide smaller green spaces but do not include the sustainability infrastructure that is part of the RUDA’s design. Lahore Smart City has eco-friendly features like rainwater harvesting and sustainable waste management yet Chahar Bagh’s LEED certification demonstrates its greater commitment to environmental sustainability.

Chahar Bagh has designated areas for modern high rise towers, community spaces, waste management systems, and public spaces for both locals and visitors. Additionally, the master planned has premium clubs, fitness centers, and secure gated entry.

The Eastern Housing and SA Gardens offer modern amenities such as community centers and sports facilities, but these projects lack the high tech amenities found in Chahar Bagh.

Investors from the middle class are drawn to Al-Rehman Gardens and Al Raheem Garden due to their affordable payment options. However, they do not have the significant government facilities that make Chahar Bagh a secure long-term investment. Lahore Smart City also offers installment options as a “smarter” development plan but its location is far away from center of Lahore.

RUDA Chahar Bagh is supported by RUDA and the Punjab Government, lowering investment risks associated with unauthorised projects and ensuring full compliance with the law.
