Qazigund (Kulgam) Jan 28: Light Motor Vehicles (LMVs) were on Wednesday released from the Qazigund–Navyug Tunnel towards Jammu after a day-long suspension of traffic on the Jammu–Srinagar National Highway, officials said.
Senior Superintendent of Police (Traffic) Rural Kashmir, Ravinder Paul Singh, said that the movement of LMVs was allowed following an improvement in road conditions.
“We have deployed traffic police personnel to assist commuters due to slippery road conditions caused by sub-zero temperatures and adverse weather,” he said.
He advised commuters to remain cautious and strictly follow traffic advisories before undertaking travel on the highway.
The Jammu–Srinagar National Highway had earlier been closed due to continuous snowfall, which disrupted vehicular movement along the vital road stretch.
