Jammu Srinagar National Higway Traffic update 12.03.2017

Like other parts of the State, it has been raining throughout the day almost all along the Srinagar-Jammu NHW. However, the concerned road maintenance agencies despite all odds remained busy in clearing-off the road to make it worthy for movement of vehicular traffic. Though the the land slides have been cleared to a large extent, yet due to uneven weather condition and rainfall, occurring of land slides/ shooting stones at vulnerable places of NHW is still looming large.
