New Kabul City Parcel 2.6 Development Plan Approved, Construction to Begin Soon
The Ministry of Urban Development and Housing has approved a comprehensive development plan for the second block of Parcel 2.6 in New Kabul City. Mawlawi Najibullah Hayat Haqqani, the minister overseeing the portfolio, signed off on the detailed blueprint, clearing the way for construction to commence in the coming days.
The project, which spans more than 245 jeribs of land, is being developed by the Golden Special Equipment construction company. According to the approved plan, the site will be transformed into a mixed-use zone featuring residential complexes, commercial centers, and public service facilities. The blueprint also allocates space for green areas and essential urban infrastructure to support the growing population of the capital’s expanding outskirts.
Officials indicated that the approval of the detailed plan marks a critical step in the broader redevelopment of New Kabul City. The Golden Special Equipment company is expected to mobilize its workforce and machinery shortly to begin earthworks and foundational construction. The project is part of ongoing efforts to modernize urban planning and expand housing capacity in the region.
The development of Parcel 2.6 aligns with broader municipal initiatives aimed at improving living standards and organizing urban expansion in the capital. Once completed, the new block is expected to provide integrated residential and commercial spaces alongside public amenities designed to serve local communities. No specific completion timeline or budget figures were provided in the initial announcement.
