Gadkari said this infrastructure is situated along the Ramban to Banihal section of NH-44. This 224-meter segment, as part of the broader project, reduces the travel distance by 125 meters, thus mitigating steep gradients, and avoids the need for a vertical cutting with a hill slope angle exceeding 80 degrees. Furthermore, it significantly facilitates the smooth flow of vehicles, bypassing the challenging terrain of Sherebibi Area gradients.
The Minister said it’s important to note that this project contributes to the region’s economic growth and enhances its overall connectivity.
Under the visionary leadership of the Honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we remain steadfast in our commitment to delivering exceptional highway infrastructure to Jammu & Kashmir, he added.
