BRO has been instructed to prepare DPR. This tunnel connecting both highways will be the longest tunnel in Uttarakhand. Under the Char Dham Vikas Project, a tunnel will be constructed near Jawadi Bypass Bridge built in Jagatoli (ahead of the PWD office) in Rudraprayag, which will reach some distance from the Belni population area on the Rudraprayag-Chopta-Pokhri motorway on the other end. This bridge will be connected to Badrinath National Highway on the Alaknanda River. By the formation of this tunnel, connecting the two highways will get rid of the jam in the main market.

Within one month the DPR will be prepared and sent to the Government of India. They have claimed that it will be the longest tunnel on the highway in Uttarakhand.
