Logar's capital is the city of
Pul-i-Alam, located in the district of the same name. It sits on the main road
running from Kabul south to Gardez and Khowst province, which borders Pakistan.
Pul-i-Alam has seen a significant
amount of reconstruction since the fall of the Taliban. The main road to Kabul
was completed in 2006, significantly reducing travel time to the national
capital. Additional projects include numerous schools, radio stations,
government facilities, and a major Afghan National Police base situated just
south of the city.
Like most Afghan cities, there is
little municipal planning or services. Electricity is provided by diesel
generators, and wells are the primary source of drinking water.
