This article has been nominated for deletion due to a lack of significant coverage from reliable publications. Steps were taken WP:BEFORE this nomination to locate said coverage, but were not successful save for mentions in passing. Please do not hesitate to contact me should appropriate sources be located during the course of this discussion. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 00:20, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * I'm leaning towards keep. If it is the major thoroughfare as claimed, in a major city such as this, then WP:ROADOUTCOMES suggests that it should be kept. My Google search suggests that it is a major road, as claimed, though I was not able to find an English-language source that plainly states that in as many words.

 * Keep - Agreeing with Shawn in Montreal on this one. On this avenue is the Supreme Court of Pakistan, the Prime Minister's Secretariat (Pakistan) and Aiwan-e-Sadr among other major locations. Unfortunately WP:BIAS plays a role in how much attention we pay to non-English language and non-Latin character-based topics. We would never question the notability of Whitehall, Pennsylvania Avenue, Downing Street or Constitution Avenue even if there was for some reason no coverage immediately available because we English speakers know the importance of these thoroughfares and streets and coverage most certainly is available somewhere. --Oakshade (talk) 21:02, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep as major Pakistani Buildings and Government Offices exists along this avenue. GeeAichhBee (talk) 04:33, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. This discussion has been cross-listed to Transportation-related and Pakistan-related deletion discussions since 19 February 2016.  While I appreciate the WP:BIAS concerns, I would hope there would be some evidence of non-trivial coverage from reliable publications by this point.
