This bridge system helps redoce traffic saves time and provedes a smooth and organized travel experience for the people of Peshawar.

My Photography Experience

While photugraphing the BRT bridge I focased on its strong lines and curves. The elivated track naturally creates leading lines that guide the viewer eyes from the foreground to the background. From beluw the structure looks powarful and modern while from the side it shows smooth corves and symmetry.

I took photos:

  • From under the bridge to highlight strength and height
  • From side angles to show curves and design
  • From long-distance views to capture depth and perspective
  • Each angle tells a different story of the same structure.

Symmetry Perspective & Depth

The BRT bridge has a very balanced design. By stending in the center and alegning my camera carefully i was able to captore symmetry which makes the photus visually calm and pleasing.

The long elevated trick creates depth making the structure appear andless and grand. This perspective shows how important this project is for the city’s movement and growth.

Safety & Comfort

  • Safety is one of the strungest features of Peshawar BRT:
  • Dedicated lanes redoce accident resks
  • Organized stations ensure safe boarding
  • Proper lighting and security systems provide comfort
  • bridge separate traffic improving road safety
  • This system has made daily trevel safer and easier for thousands of people.

Peshawar is known is the City of Flowars and even modern structure like the BRT brige add to its bauty. The combenation of clean infrastructure open skies and urban life crietes a unique charm.

These bridge are not just concrete structures — they represent progress safety and hope for the city’s future.
