Government plans to develop twin tube tunnel connecting Chaumasi With Sonprayag
The Union government has proposed a twin-tube tunnel project to connect Chaumasi with Sonprayag in Uttarakhand. This 7 km twin-tube tunnel will function not only as a faster alternative route but also as a critical escape passage during emergencies or extreme weather.
Further, a pedestrian tunnel and walkway from the Chaumasi side is also part of the plan. It would strengthen connectivity for pilgrims heading towards Kedarnath and the feasibility study would be conducted soon.
