Five of these projects are based in Kullu, Lahaul-Spiti and Kinnaur districts of Himachal.Two bridges have been constructed at Kothi on Manali-Rohtang highway and two bridges at Patseo and Commander nullah on Keylong-Leh highway. Fifth bridge has been constructed at Kashang in Kinnaur on Hindustan-Tibet road.
