  "account": "The Galiyat district has reopened two major roads following a heavy snowfall, according to authorities. Officials announced that traffic has resumed on the roads, although crews continue to spread salt to minimize the likelihood of vehicles losing control. A snow-removal team has cleared the road connecting Baragali and Dunga Gali, while the route through Changla Gali has also been reopened, restoring access for both residents and tourists. Government inspectors checked the work done on the snow-clearing and examined the available salt supply at the Changla Gali highway authority facility. They directed the crews to spread salt wherever necessary to deal with slippery conditions.\n\nDespite the roads being reopened, drivers are advised to exercise caution. Even after the visible snow is removed, low temperatures can create icy patches, so drivers should be prepared for these conditions. The mountain weather can change rapidly, which can significantly impact travel conditions. Motorists traveling towards Nathiagali, Dunga Gali, and Changla Gali are urged to drive slowly, taking extra care, particularly on shaded stretches and elevated sections where ice may still be present. The reopened routes enable travel to resume across the affected areas, but continued salting and careful driving are essential to reduce risks on mountain roads. Drivers should not assume that a cleared road is completely free of ice, as conditions can change quickly.
