UTTARKASHI: The construction work in Uttarkashi‘s Silkyara-Barkot tunnel project has begun after work was halted for over two months due to partial collapse of the tunnel in November last year. The ministry of road transport and highways (MoRTH) has granted permission to start the work, officials said.
Col Deepak Patil, project manager of NHIDCL, told TOI, “As per the guidelines by MoRTH, we will initially secure tunnel’s red zones from both ends.All safety and strengthening works are likely to be completed in 2-3 weeks.”
