Beacon throws open Gurez-Bandipora road for 4x4 vehicles | | | Srinagar
Beacon authorities have opened the Gurez-Bandipora road for four-by-four vehicles by clearing snow which had accumulated during the winter, an official said on Wednesday.
He said that the snow clearance teams of 56RCC/BEACON have connected Gurez with mainland Kashmir by completing the snow clearance for one way movement of vehicles.
"This is for the first time that despite record high snowfall in this winter the Bandipora-Gurez road has been thrown open in second week of April itself. It is a great achievement for us,” Lt Col APS Khaira, Oc 56 RCC said, according to a statement by Beacon.
"We worked day and night in extreme weather conditions to achieve this landmark for earliest ever opening of Razdhan Pass. This has not only facilitated the conduct of General elections in Gurez and Tulail valleys but also helped the stranded local populace by connecting them with mainland," he said.
Gurez-Bandipora road remains closed for four months due to heavy snowfall in winter.
