This activity provides a detailed overview of the operational status of the Bridge GHARI NOORPUR BRIDGE, recorded on 1 August, 2026. The affected site is situated within the Abbottabad district, operating under the administrative jurisdiction of XEN H/W ABBOTTABAD.

Restoration and clearance efforts were facilitated by the deployment of N/A , which remained in active operation for a duration of 100 hours . In a formal assessment of the situation, the reporting officer noted with remarks: 1-Problem Statement Recent flood events have caused severe scouring around the bridge substructure, particularly at the abutments and pile foundations. The erosion of surrounding soil has resulted in exposure of foundation piles beneath the pile cap, thereby compromising the structural stability of the bridge. 2. Structural Risk Assessment The exposure of foundation piles has significantly reduced skin friction and load-carrying capacity, posing serious risks including pile instability, differential settlement, and progressive structural distress. The bridge is now in a critical condition, posing a threat to public safety and continuity of traffic..
