GUPIS: The National Highway Authority has deployed staff and machinery to clear the Chitral-Shandur Road between Gupis, Khalti, and Khotum.
The road has been blocked for about two weeks due to landslides and flash floods. This closure disrupted travel and trade in the region.
Residents and travelers struggled with the roadblock. They faced difficulties moving goods and accessing essential services. Few alternative routes made the situation worse.
NHA teams are removing debris and fixing the damaged road. They aim to reopen the route soon.
Officials hope to restore full access quickly. They say the road’s reopening will help trade and tourism in Gupis and nearby areas.
