As part of the four-lane project, two flyovers would be constructed at Sangrama and Delina, Baramulla. Besides, the decision of by-pass at Baramulla and Pattan too would be decided after taking the assessment report into account.

The road stretch is around 100 kms and after completion of this project, the highway will be four-lane upto the border town Uri which is right on the LoC.
