Civilian traffic allowed on Jammu-Srinagar highway

Normal traffic was allowed on the highway from Jammu to Srinagar this morning after the nodal agency, the CRPF, telephonically informed that there will be no movement of security convoy during the day," a traffic department official told PTI. However, he said a landslide hit the highway at Anokhi fall near Ramban around 7 am which was cleared within two hours by the road clearance agency to ensure smooth movement of traffic. The landslide was triggered by rains which lashed wide parts of Jammu and Kashmir including the highway Tuesday, he said. "The traffic is moving smoothly when last reports were received," the official said, adding no vehicle was allowed from the opposite direction in view of the one-way restrictions which are in force due to the ongoing work on the four-laning project. The traffic on the highway plies alternatively from the capital cities of Jammu and Srinagar to ensure smooth movement of the vehicles.
