Srinagar (The Azadi Times) – The 270-kilometer-long Srinagar–Jammu National Highway, the only all-weather road connecting the Kashmir Valley with the Jammu region of Jammuand Kashmir, continues to operate on a one-way traffic system.
Kashmir Needs Your Voice
With internet services suspended in Pakistan-administered Kashmir since 6 June 2026, timely reporting has become increasingly challenging. The Azadi Times is inviting Kashmir-based writers and journalists to join our network of authors and contributors.
According to traffic officials, vehicles are being allowed to move from Jammu towards Srinagar today, while the opposite direction remains restricted due to incomplete restoration work at Thand area along the highway.
Officials urged travelers to strictly adhere to advisories, maintain lane discipline, avoid overtaking, and ignore rumors circulating about highway conditions.
Other Key Routes
Traffic on the Mughal Road, which also connects the Valley with Jammu province, and the Srinagar–Leh highway, linking central Kashmir with Ladakh, is moving as per official advisories.
However, due to heavy pressure from fruit-laden trucks during the peak harvest season, traffic between Herpora and Peer Ki Gali on the Mughal Road has slowed considerably.
The public has been advised to check real-time updates via the traffic police’s official Twitter and Facebook pages, or by contacting traffic control units in Srinagar, Jammu, and Ramban before starting their journey.
