Government to convert Danyore Tunnel into Art Gallery

GILGIT: Gilgit Development Authority is working on a 40 million worth project to rehabilitate the 510-feet-long Danyore make shift suspension bridge and the 10-metre connected tunnel.

The bridge was constructed in mid-sixties and currently the bridge was declared unsafe and closed for vehicle. In 2013, an alternate two way concrete bridge was constructed and this suspension bridge was used by pedestrians and motorcyclists.

The tunnel was dug by the local residents without any engineering tools and equipment.
