The road project stretching over one kilometre on Ataturk Avenue was a joint venture of Coca-Cola Pakistan with the Capital Development Authority (CDA) and the National Incubation Center (NIC)

The road is constructed with recycled plastic and a combination of willing partners with the goal of developing a scalable solution for the use of plastic in high-value manufacturing.

The project is one of the first steps to making the city environmentally friendly. It will also create jobs and save money on the maintenance cost of the road.
