Snow accumulated at several vulnerable points along the Pir Panjal range had rendered the road temporarily unfit for traffic earlier this week.<br \/>\nAfter reviewing the surface condition and ensuring safe passage, authorities permitted movement of LMVs on the route. Traffic officials confirmed that vehicles were moving without disruption and no major bottlenecks were reported during the initial hours after reopening.<br \/>\nThe Mughal Road serves as an alternate link between the Kashmir Valley and the Jammu division and is frequently closed during winter months due to heavy snowfall in high-altitude sections such as Peer Ki Gali.Authorities advised commuters to follow traffic advisories and adhere to safety guidelines while travelling on the mountainous stretch.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35420\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35420\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-35420\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-300x180.jpg\" alt=\"Mughal Road Reopens For Traffic, LMVs Ply Smoothly\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-1024x616.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-768x462.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-549x330.jpg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-466x280.jpg 466w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-233x140.jpg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-230x138.jpg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-360x217.jpg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1-100x60.jpg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Mughal-Road-1.jpg 1473w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35420\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mughal Road Reopens For Traffic, LMVs Ply Smoothly<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SHOPIAN, Feb 27: The historic Mughal Road was reopened for traffic on Friday after remaining closed due to recent snowfall, with Light Motor Vehicles allowed to ply smoothly along the stretch.
