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.

Motorway junction or Lahore

Pindi Bhattian, where the M-4 meets the M-2, is one of Hafizabad district’s two tehsils, so coaches to the capital pass right through the district.

The Lahore route costs less thanks to Manthar’s low fare, but adds a long transfer.
