| Srinagar-Leh NH opens | | | Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Mar 25: The Srinagar-Leh National Highway was opened for vehicular traffic on Friday after remaining closed for about three months, officials said.
About 550 light motor vehicles were allowed to move from Sonamarg to Leh, a traffic police official said.
The highway was officially closed on January 5, 2022 following heavy snowfall after remaining open for a record time of almost ten months last year.
The first convoy of the vehicles was flagged off from Sonamag towards Kargil by the Deputy Commissioner Ganderbal, Krittika Jyotsna.
The highway was restored last Saturday after Border Roads Organisation (BRO), responsible for the maintenance of the highway, cleared the accumulated snow in a record 73 days.
The One way traffic from Srinagar to Leh would play on odd days while from Leh to Srinagar the traffic shall move on even days.
The movement of the heavy vehicles carrying essential supplies for Ladakh and Kargil regions from Sonamarg to Drass will be decided later on, a traffic official said. |
