BP Highway Reopened After Flood Damage, Reconstruction Underway

Kavrepalanchok. Traffic has been resumed on the BP Highway towards Kavrepalanchok, which was damaged by floods two years ago, through the currently reconstructed road. The Division Road Office, Bhaktapur, has stated that further improvements are being made with the upcoming Dashain festival in mind.

After approximately 30 kilometers of the road was damaged by the floods of October 2081 BS, traffic was being managed through a temporary diversion in the Roshi Khola. However, the continuous rainfall in the first week of October washed away this diversion, and traffic is now being managed through the reconstructed road.
