Road Construction Nears Completion Connecting Gurja Village in Myagdi to Transportation Network

Myagdi. The construction of the road connecting Gurja village in Dhaulagiri Rural Municipality-1, Myagdi, is reaching its final stage. Under the Lulang-Gurja road project, approximately four more kilometers of track will be built in the current fiscal year to connect Gurja to the transportation network. In the previous three years, an 18-kilometer road track from Lulang to Bhaisimane was opened with investment from the rural municipality, provincial, and federal governments.

Dhaulagiri Rural Municipality Vice-Chair Resham Pun Magar informed that an additional approximately three kilometers of road track has been opened from Bhaisimane to Paltan. "Once approximately two more kilometers of track are opened, Gurja will be connected to the road network," he said. "There has been some delay because the construction company's equipment (dozer) broke down. If work proceeds smoothly, the road will reach Gurja in about ten days. Vehicles will be able to travel there."
