5 New Driving Schools Established for Students Under CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme
The Punjab government has taken another step to support students under the CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme by establishing five driving training schools in Lahore. The facilities will help eligible students learn to ride motorcycles safely and complete the required licensing process.
The initiative is particularly important for students who are receiving or applying for electric bikes but do not already have proper driving skills or a motorcycle driving license.
The five training facilities have been established at different locations across Lahore, giving students multiple options for accessing driving training and licensing services.
Five Driving Schools Established in Lahore
According to the announcement, Lahore Traffic Police has established five driving training facilities for students associated with the CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme.
The designated locations are:
| Driving Training Facility | Location |
|---|---|
| Abshar Driving School | Lahore |
| Liberty Khidmat Markaz | Lahore |
| Greater Iqbal Park | Lahore |
| Traffic Police Lines Manawan | Lahore |
| LOS Ferozepur Road | Lahore |
These centers are intended to make driving training more accessible to students and encourage them to obtain the required license before riding their electric motorcycles.

Why Driving Training Is Important for E-Bike Students
Getting an electric bike can make daily travel easier for students, particularly those who have to travel between their homes and educational institutions.
However, access to a motorcycle also comes with responsibility. Students need to understand traffic rules, road safety and basic riding practices before using an electric bike on public roads.
The new driving schools can help students develop these skills through formal training instead of learning only through personal experience.
A driving license is also an important part of becoming a responsible road user. By connecting driving training facilities with the student e-bike initiative, the government is encouraging safer use of the vehicles provided under the scheme.
CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme Offers Electric Motorcycles to Students
The driving training initiative is connected with the CM Punjab Electric Bike Scheme, under which the Punjab government plans to provide 100,000 electric bikes to students across the province.
The scheme is designed to provide students with a more affordable transportation option for their educational journeys.
According to the provided scheme details, the total cost of an electric bike is PKR 199,000, while the student’s share is PKR 109,000.
The remaining costs are supported by the government under the scheme structure.
Monthly Installment Plan for Students
One of the major features of the scheme is the installment facility. Eligible students can pay their share over a period of 36 months.
The monthly installment is stated as PKR 3,028, making the cost easier to manage compared with paying the entire amount upfront.
The Punjab government will also cover certain additional costs associated with the scheme, including insurance, mark-up and registration.
This arrangement is intended to reduce the financial burden on students who need affordable transportation for their education.
Who Can Benefit From the Scheme?
The CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme is aimed at students enrolled in educational institutions across Punjab.
The scheme covers students from both public and private educational institutions, with more than 33,000 institutions reportedly eligible to participate.
Students who meet the scheme’s eligibility requirements can apply through the designated online application system.
However, students should check the latest eligibility conditions and application instructions before submitting their information because scheme requirements can change.
How Driving Training Fits Into the E-Bike Scheme
The establishment of five driving schools adds an important safety component to the electric bike initiative.
The process can be viewed in three simple stages:
First, eligible students apply for the CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme through the official application system.
Second, students who need driving skills or licensing support can access the designated traffic police training facilities.
Third, after completing the requirements, students can use their electric bikes more confidently while following traffic laws and road safety rules.
This approach makes the scheme about more than simply providing motorcycles. It also focuses on helping students become responsible riders.
Where Students Can Get Driving Training
Students looking for training in Lahore can visit one of the five designated locations announced for the initiative:
- Abshar Driving School
- Liberty Khidmat Markaz
- Greater Iqbal Park
- Traffic Police Lines Manawan
- LOS Ferozepur Road
Students should confirm the latest training timings, required documents and licensing procedure with the relevant traffic police authorities before visiting a center.
How to Apply for the CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme
Students can submit their applications through the official Punjab government e-bike portal at bikes.punjab.gov.pk.
Applicants should provide accurate information and carefully review the eligibility criteria and application requirements before submitting the form.
The scheme is intended to improve student mobility by making electric motorcycles more accessible, while the newly established driving schools add a focus on safe and responsible riding.

A Step Toward Safer Student Transportation
The establishment of five driving training schools gives the CM Punjab E-Bike Scheme an additional safety-focused element.
Providing students with affordable electric motorcycles can help address transportation difficulties, but proper training and licensing are equally important.
With dedicated training locations in Lahore, students can get support in learning how to ride safely and understand their responsibilities as road users. The combination of affordable financing, government-supported costs, and driving training could make the initiative more useful for students across Punjab.
