DIMAPUR — Deputy Commissioner of Phek, Kuko Mero, has restricted movement of vehicles on Kohima-Jessami (Package-II) stretch of NH-29, from 5 am to 8 pm, with effect from September 27 till October 2.
The DC in a travel advisory said this was to prioritise the safety of all travelers and ensure the effectiveness of maintenance work on the stretch (from existing Km 30.474 to existing Km. 53.220) .
“Despite regular maintenance and restoration work carried out by Vetex Construction Company, the relentless passage of heavy-loaded trucks has caused continuous damage. The frequent movement of vehicles has also obstructed maintenance efforts,” the advisory stated.
It also advised travelers to consider taking the alternative route via Zuketsa, which is suitable for light and medium vehicles.
