Flooded Seti river erodes bridge in Pokhara, disrupting transportation

Pokhara, 19 June (2022) - The flooded Seti river has damaged the motorable bridge linking two wards of Pokhara Metropolitan City, causing transportation disruption.

The river swollen due to torrential rain since Saturday night has eroded the foundation of the bridge, said the Division Road Office, Pokhara, adding that as a result, people's mobility on the damaged bridge has been at risk. Structures of the bridge should be relocated to elsewhere, he said.
