Ladakh’s ₹1,196 Crore Fotu La Tunnel Gets Approval 🚇🏔️

Описание: Major infrastructure boost for Ladakh
The Government has approved the Fotu La Tunnel Project in Ladakh at a cost of ₹1,196 crore, aimed at improving all-weather connectivity in the strategically important region 🚇🏔️🇮🇳
The tunnel will be constructed on National Highway-01 (NH-01) and is expected to shorten travel distance by approximately 8.5 km, making journeys faster and safer.
Officials say the project will strengthen year-round road connectivity between Srinagar and Leh, especially during harsh winters when snowfall often disrupts transport.
The tunnel will improve the movement of civilians, tourists, goods, and emergency services while also enhancing logistical support for defence forces deployed in the region.
Fotu La is one of the highest points on the Srinagar-Leh highway, and the tunnel is expected to reduce travel time, fuel consumption, and weather-related disruptions.
Experts believe the project will boost tourism, economic activity, regional development, and strategic connectivity in Ladakh.
