Spur Routes of NH 1

NH 1 presently has 4 different spur routes designated as 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D. Except for 1A, all these spurs are entirely within the state of Jammu and Kashmir. These spurs are strategically important as they connect remote cities and towns in the Himalayas with the rest of India.
