Sohawa–Chakwal Road (Punjabi, Urdu: {{Nastaliq|سوہاوہ چکوال سڑک) is a provincially maintained highway in Punjab that extends from Sohawa to Chakwal. The route is generally rural, passing through Chakwal, Jhelum and Rawalpindi districts of Punjab. The route is long with a speed limit of 60km/h, except within towns, where the speed limit is reduced to 40km/h. The eastern terminus ends in Sohawa at the N-5 National Highway (Chakwal Chowk) while the western terminus ends at Tehsil Chowk in Chakwal with Talagang-Chakwal Road, Mandra Chakwal Road and Chakwal-Jhelum Road. Reconstruction of the road began on 6 September 2012 to convert the road to a dual carriageway. Construction was scheduled for completion in 2014, but has been on hold .[1]
