The National Highways Authority (NHA) on Wednesday started repairing the damaged Battal Naran Bridge with the help of heavy machinery and also prepared a temporary alternative passage for vehicular traffic.
While talking to the media, an NHA spokesperson said, “Earlier last night all return traffic from Naran was stopped and now after establishing a temporary passage light traffic has been cleared including tourists”.
Federal Minister of Communications Maulana Asad Mehmood has instructed member KP assembly Murshid Amin to restore the traffic soon.
