There is a Green Himalayas project under way to convert Phobrang to an eco-tourism site.[5] [6]
The 84 km-long Marsimik La Road from Lukung to Hot Springs passes through Phobrang.[7] There is also a 40 km-long road from Phobrang to Chartse on the north bank of Pangong Tso.[8] Both these roads are meant for mainly military use.
