Sobre esta Trap
On the Zu Peshawar BRT, cards now need biometric registration with a Pakistani CNIC, and unregistered cards will be blocked from 1 January 2027. As a visitor, do not queue for a card. Foreign passengers can ride with the Zu App or a single-journey ticket bought at the station counter. The line runs east to west with 31 stations, so use it for Hayatabad and Karkhano and keep the old city for walking.
