The Jammu-Srinagar highway remained closed on Friday for the third consecutive day due to fresh snowfall and landslides at some place of the strategic 300 km-long road, a traffic department official said.

"There have been landslides at some places along the Ramsoo-Ramban stretch of the highway due to heavy rain in the area, while fresh snowfall occurred in the Bannihal sector. The highway will remain closed till the landslide debris and accumulated snow is completely cleared,' the official said.
