The M-9 motorway or the Karachi–Hyderabad motorway (Urdu: کراچی–حیدرآباد موٹروے) is a north–south motorway in the Sindh province of Pakistan, connecting Karachi to Hyderabad.[1] The six-lane road is 136 kilometres long,[2][3] and caters to the commercial traffic originating from the Karachi Port and Port Qasim. Daily traffic count is around 30,000.[4]
The motorway is an upgrade of the old Super Highway. The Frontier Works Organization executed the project on a build–operate–transfer basis for 25 years.[5][6]
