CHAPTER # 03 (KARACHI TO SKARDU)

Strategic Highway 1 (S-1), also known as the Jaglot Skardu Road is a 167-kilometre-long highway in Pakistan. It was constructed by the Pakistan Army Corps of Engineers and the Association of Chinese Engineers from 1970 to 1982.

On December 16, 2021, the upgraded road was inaugurated by Prime Minister Imran Khan. The road has now been increased in width from 3.6 meters to 7.3 meters to allow a better and smooth flow of traffic. Moreover, the time it earlier took to reach Skardu from Gilgit was about 10 hours, which will now be reduced to four hours. However, the road project has been completed without tunnels and alignments which were initially part of the upgrade plan designed by the Frontier Works Organization (FWO). Thus, the uncertainty of closure of the road due to landslides still exists.
Hope you will enjoy.
Thank you.
