Sadiqabad to Okara Bus Ticket Price, Online Booking, Service Timing
Okara lies on the old National Highway between Sahiwal and Lahore. The Lahore coaches from Sadiqabad bypass it on the M-3, so by road you change in Multan, while several mainline trains, including the Allama Iqbal Express and Awam Express, run from Sadiqabad to Okara Cantt without a change.
Short answer: Sadiqabad to Okara costs about Rs 3,000 by coach via Multan and takes about seven hours. By rail, mainline trains such as the Allama Iqbal Express and Awam Express run direct from Sadiqabad to Okara Cantt, often the simpler option.

The motorway misses Okara
Lahore bound coaches from Sadiqabad take the M-3, which runs well away from Okara. That is why there is no simple direct coach and why the train is so competitive here.
By road, change in Multan for a coach east along the National Highway through Khanewal and Sahiwal.
