Tunnel T-4 on NH-44: A gamechanger in transportation infrastructure: DC Ramban

In a significant development for the transportation infrastructure, the construction of Tunnel T-4 on National Highway-44 is well underway and is poised to be a gamechanger for commuters. Spanning an impressive length of 3.5 kilometers, the tunnel is scheduled to be completed by December 31, 2024.

The upcoming Tunnel T-4 holds immense promise for travelers as it offers a safer and more efficient route for commuting. Once motorists exit Tunnel T-5 (Panthyal Tube), they will be seamlessly guided into Tunnel T-4, effectively eliminating a treacherous 6-kilometer stretch from Panthyal to Digdole.

The treacherous stretch that the tunnel is replacing has long been a cause of concern for both commuters and authorities due to its challenging terrain and weather conditions. However, with the implementation of Tunnel T-4, commuters can look forward to a smoother and more convenient journey, bypassing the hazardous section altogether.

DC Ramban, Mussarat Zia, taking to Twitter highlighted the significance of Tunnel T-4 and the positive impact it will have on the overall travel experience. He advised commuters to stay tuned for updates on the project’s development and inauguration.

The dedication and resilience of NHAI Officials, despite challenging weather conditions, reinforce the commitment to deliver improved transportation infrastructure to the people.


The ongoing developments on National Highway-44 are set to transform travel in the region, ensuring smoother and safer journeys for all. Tunnel T-4 will not only alleviate commuter woes but also improve overall connectivity and accessibility in the area.
