摘要：Local Government services are considered essential for sustainable development in the contemporary world especially in the infrastructure sector. Emerging economies like Pakistan are struggling to improve quality of life by providing better opportunities to its masses through local government services for sustainable development. However, existing literature indicates some issues regarding contribution of local government in terms of infrastructure development in the emerging economies; therefore, this study was carried out to examine the role of local government services in project success for sustainable development through infrastructure projects in the selected part of Pakistan. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 217 respondents who were directly engaged in infrastructure projects by using random sampling technique. SPSS was used for data analysis through selected statistical techniques by collecting primary data through structured research instrument using five points liker scale ranging 1 to 5. Results indicate that there is statistically significant relationship between services of local government and project success in infrastructure sector that is evident from positive association among selected variables. Moreover, findings reveal the significant impact of Local Govt. Services on project success of infrastructure sector that could contribute towards sustainable socio-economic development in the economy. It is suggested that policy makers and relevant authorities should improve the quality of local government services with diversity to develop infrastructure sector by executing success projects for individual and collective well-being. This study could help to enhance understanding of relevant stakeholders.
