Sadiqabad to Hafizabad Bus Ticket Price, Online Booking, Service Timing
Hafizabad is a rice growing district between Lahore and Sargodha, with about 1.32 million people in 2023. Sadiqabad’s Islamabad bound coaches join the M-2 at Pindi Bhattian, which is in Hafizabad district itself, so a set down there and a short local ride can be quicker than going via Lahore.
Short answer: Sadiqabad to Hafizabad takes about eight hours and costs about Rs 4,000 if your Islamabad coach sets you down at Pindi Bhattian, then a local ride of about 40 km. Via Lahore is cheaper with Manthar, about Rs 3,100, but takes around ten hours.
