National Highway Authority (NHA) has been working on a number of projects relating to roads and bridge construction at the affected sections of the Indus Highway.   

According to NHA officials, various sections of the Indus Highway spanning 281 kilometres were severely damaged during the recent heavy rains and floods.

Repair and restoration work on a three kilometre road section near Sehwan has almost been completed and traffic temporarily restored.

Three new bridges are also being proposed near Sehwan to address the damage caused by the floods.
