QUETTA: Flow of traffic between Quetta and Chaman was restored Friday noon after remaining suspended for six days due to a heavy snowfall. Vehicular traffic was suspended since Khojak Top, a mountain that connects Quetta with Chaman, was blanketed in snow. As a result, hundreds of vehicles remained trapped on the national highway. Afghan transit trade was also affected due to the snarl-up.
