Between Thakot and Raikot spans an area in which the government of Pakistan is currently either planning or actively constructing several hydropower projects , most notably the Diamer-Bhasha Dam and Dasu Dam . Sections of the N-35 around these projects will be completely rebuilt in tandem with dam construction . In the interim , this section of the N-35 is currently being upgraded from its current state until dam construction commences in full force at a later date . Improvement projects on this section are expected to be completed by January 2017 at a cost of approximately $ 72 million . The next 335 kilometres of roadway connect Raikot to the China-Pakistan border . Reconstruction works on this section of roadway preceded the CPEC , and were initiated after severe damage to roadways in the area following the 2010 Pakistan floods . Most of this section of roadway was completed in September 2012 at a cost of $ 510 million
