The government has set about renewing some 125 kilometres of road length in Srinagar while taking a multidimensional approach aimed at long term solutions to concerns surrounding roads in the capital district.
Officials said the targeted length includes 100 kilometres that require resurfacing and 25 kilometres which require full macadamisation adding that it stretches across different kinds of roads including the national highway road and major and interior roads of the district.
“Contractors’ strike held up restoration work on roads in the district but about 50 percent of the total targeted work has been completed since work was started in June.”
