On Manthar’s highway network

Manthar is one of the few intercity operators that treats Liaquatpur as a proper stop, running from the town as well as through it.

Coasters are cheaper and frequent, but slow in summer heat.

The town is a market for the farms between the highway and the Cholistan edge, and much of the traffic is growers heading to Rahim Yar Khan’s grain and cotton markets. Saturday and Sunday are quieter than weekdays.
