tunsa beraj

tunsa barrage


Road Junction to Taunsa Barrage just North of Shahdan Lund

I couldn’t find the exact kilometer marker for this junction point. Help is sought from readers. If one is traveling on Indus Highway then a short detour to east to visit Taunsa barrage may not be a bad idea.
Taunsa barrage is the last barrage on Indus in Punjab province as the waters flow downstream to Sindh province. It was completed in 1958. A photo of Taunsa barrage is shown below. It is a multipurpose construction with road and rail bridges as well as a hydel power station.
