Jammu: The construction of the 6-km flyover from Kanal Road to Mithi on the Jammu-Akhnoor highway has been completed on which two-way traffic has been flowing for the past few days. The construction of a four-lane flyover on the 32-km Jammu-Akhnoor road up to Ganesh Vihar has greatly reduced traffic pressure.
Traffic jams in Kanal Road, Talab Talu, Nahar, Mithi, Dumana had became a regular occurrence. Now this will reduce the traffic pressure.
