Zojila Tunnel Breakthrough: Asia's Longest Bi-Directional Road Tunnel Nears Reality |Gadkari Attends

Описание: India's ambitious Zojila Tunnel project has achieved a historic breakthrough. Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari, along with Jammu & Kashmir LG Manoj Sinha and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, witnessed the symbolic excavation of the final rock wall inside the tunnel.

Stretching 13.15 kilometres beneath the Zojila Pass, the tunnel will provide all-weather connectivity between Kashmir and Ladakh, reducing dependence on the snow-bound mountain pass that remains closed for months due to harsh weather.

The project is expected to boost tourism, trade, logistics and strategic mobility while transforming connectivity in one of India's most challenging terrains. Once completed, the Zojila Tunnel will become Asia's longest bi-directional road tunnel.
