NHA reopens Babusar Road for traffic after 7-month closure

Gulf Today

|

May 26, 2025

Babusar Road, which connects the picturesque town of Naran in the Kaghan Valley with Chilas in Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) in northern areas has been reopened to traffic after remaining closed for seven months.

- Tariq Butt

The scenic Babusar Top and Babusar Pass usually remain closed from November to June every year owing to heavy snow. Through Babusar Pass, the journey from Diamer to Mansehra takes seven hours, while the same distance is covered in 14 hours through the Karakoram Highway. The reopening of this high-altitude pass is likely to increase tourist influx in GB and also tourism activity across the Naran and Kaghan Valley and adjoining areas.

50-year mortgages won’t fix the affordability crisis

Bill Pulte, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, recently floated the idea of offering people a 50-year mortgage instead of the more conventional 30-year financing option. it sounds attractive at first because stretching out repaying of a mortgage would lower the borrower's monthly payment, but this wouldn't fix the homeownership affordability crisis.
