📋 Tender Overview
The spokesperson for the National Highway Authority (NHA) has issued an urgent travel advisory regarding severe traffic disruptions on key northern highway routes. Due to high-level flash floods occurring at the Thak location along Babusar Highway, the road has been completely closed to all vehicular traffic at Zero Point. In light of this situation, the district administration and NHA strongly advise all passengers and tourists to avoid traveling via Babusar Highway and to use the Karakoram Highway as an alternative route.
Concurrently, traffic movement on the Karakoram Highway has also been temporarily halted near Shang Nullah, close to Gonar Farm, after a heavy freight truck overturned across the road. This incident has caused a blockade, affecting traffic flow. To manage the growing congestion, authorities have immediately stopped further vehicular entry at the Gonar Farm Check Post.
Personnel from the NHA, alongside the Diamer district administration and emergency rescue teams equipped with heavy machinery, are actively working on-site to remove the overturned truck and restore traffic flow as quickly as possible. All commuters are strictly requested to avoid unnecessary travel along these routes until the highways are fully cleared and to carefully adhere to instructions provided by the local administration.
