The work has been executed by R&B Division Qazigund, with Itoo Constructions carrying out the macadamisation.
Locals expressed gratitude to MLA Ghulam Ahmad Mir and the R&B Department for taking up the road improvement work. They also appreciated Itoo Constructions for the quality of execution, saying the improved road would make daily commuting easier for residents.
“The macadamisation of this road was a long-pending demand. We are thankful to the MLA and R&B Department for taking up the work. We also appreciate Itoo Constructions for maintaining good quality,” a local resident said.»
Residents said the road is an important link for the remote habitation and becomes particularly difficult to use during adverse weather conditions.
They urged the authorities to continue improving road connectivity in other remote areas of the constituency and ensure timely maintenance of the newly macadamised stretch.
