Banihal Qazigund Road Tunnel
-------------------------------------
Banihal Qazigund Road Tunnel is a 8.45 km (5.25 mi) road tunnel at elevation of 1,790 m (5,870 ft) in the Pir Panjal range in the Indian Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir connecting Banihal and Qazigund. The tunnel reduces the distance between Srinagar and Jammu by 16 km. It also reduces travel time from 2-3 hours to 15 minutes.

It is a Twin tube tunnel consisting of two parallel tunnels - one for each direction of travel. Each tunnel is 7 m (23 ft) wide and has two lanes of road. The two tunnels are interconnected by a passage every 500 m (1,600 ft) for maintenance and emergency evacuation. The tunnel will have forced ventilation for extracting smoke and stale air and infusing fresh air. It will have state of the art monitoring and control systems for security. Built at a cost of Rs. 2,100 crore, it is expected that vehicles will have to pay a toll to use the tunnel.

Construction of this tunnel started in 2011 along with the project to widen NH 44 (which was known as NH 1A before all the national highways were renumbered in the year 2010) to four lanes. The existing road tunnel below the Banihal pass (Jawahar tunnel), has been a bottleneck on the road due to its elevation of 2,194 m (7,198 ft) and limited traffic capacity. The new tunnel's average elevation at 1,790 m is 400 m lower than the existing Jawahar tunnel's elevation, which would make it less prone to avalanches. When completed, the tunnel would reduce the road distance between Banihal and Qazigund by 16 km (10 mile).
