The 440 metre construction being done with the help of Australian technology has reached the final stage and it will be opened for traffic as soon as the decoration work completes here.
It several shops and buildings were to be demolished under the Char Dham all weather road project in order to avoid the demolition the central government had given the green signal to build a tunnel under the chamba city market to protect the building and shops from breaking down. BRO started tunnel work in January 2019 using the latest Australian technology.
