Srinagar Jammu NH open

Ramban, Nov 17: The Srinagar–Jammu National Highway (NH-44) remained open for two-way movement of light, medium, and heavy vehicles on Monday, traffic officials said.

In a fresh advisory issued for Tuesday, the Traffic Department announced that, subject to fair weather and good road conditions, NH-44 would remain open for the movement of all categories of vehicles.

Officials monitoring traffic regulation informed that although the highway remained functional in both directions throughout the day, vehicular movement was slow at several stretches, including Balli Nullah, Dewal, Nashri–Dalwas, Maroog, and Kishtwari Pather between Udhampur and Banihal.

The single-lane road conditions at multiple locations and the breakdown of several heavy vehicles further contributed to the sluggish flow of traffic.
