Astor Valley Road Repair Ongoing, Public Advised to Exercise Caution (District Administration)

Astor (P R) – Astor Valley Road was closed to all traffic on Wednesday and Thursday night after stormy rain caused landslides and heavy rock falls between Mishkan and Hawai Mor, cutting several sections of the road and complicating restoration efforts. Following the Deputy Commissioner’s orders, the road repair operation began yesterday and continued around the clock. As of this morning, the Public Works Department’s heavy machinery, including wheel dozers and excavators, is actively engaged in the restoration. Deputy Commissioner Neelam Ali inspected the damaged sections personally yesterday and directed the immediate use of available resources to reopen the road. Today, Assistant Commissioner Dr. Wajahat Saleem, acting on the Deputy Commissioner’s orders, supervised the operation and assessed the situation. The repair work is progressing rapidly; once the road is fully restored, an immediate notice will be issued. Travelers are advised to avoid the route until further notice.
