Margalla Avenue is part of Islamabad’s master plan prepared in 1960 but it could not be constructed yet. Capital Development Authority is initiating work on this project.
The incumbent Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) government decided to construct this road from the Sangjani area on G.T. Road to Satra Meel. Earlier, the CDA board had decided to get this project done through the ministry of defense.
