UPPER DIR, JUL 20 (DNA) – Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif arrived here Thursday to inaugurate the 8.5-kilometre-long Lowari Tunnel project which will provide Chitral an all-weather connectivity with rest of the country.
Governor Khyber Pukhtunkhwa Iqbal Zafar Jhagra and Adviser to Prime Minister Sardar Mehtab Abbasi were present.
The tunnel is located on Nowshera-Mardan-Malakand- Chakdara-Chitral National Highway (N-45).
The project includes construction of two tunnels (8.5 km and 1.9 Km), access roads and 12 bridges (35 km).
