As the weather showed signs of improvement Wednesday, the strategic Srinagar-Jammu national highway was reopened for one-way traffic.

A traffic department official said traffic would be allowed from Srinagar to Jammu Wednesday but not the other way -- to ensure the safety of travellers.

The highway, the lifeline of the landlocked Kashmir Valley as all essentials are routed through it, was closed for three days due to rains and snowfall.
