Passenger vehicles pass through

 Lowari Tunnel


CHITRAL 05 March, 09:  It came as a pleasant surprise to Chitralis when the National Highway Authority, for the first time, formally ferried 32 passengers , each way through the Lowari Tunnel in two requisitioned Toyota Hi-ace vans, carrying 16 passengers each, on Thursday noon (between 1200-1300 hrs). No fare was charged from the passengers. It is expected that the arrangement would continue on a daily basis, until the tunnel is fully commissioned.  --(CN report).
