KATHMANDU : Three year long service track construction under Koteshwor-Kalanki road is still not yet completed.
An agreement had been made to construct a one-metre service track on either side of the road, however, topographical difficulties and failure to remove physical infrastructures have delayed it.
The Kathmandu Ring Road Improvement Project has planned to construct ladders instead of the service track in some places where there are topographical difficulties, according to project Chief Amrit Mani Rimal. There are high and even surfaces on the inside and outside of the Ring Road, creating difficulties, he said.
Preparations are underway to construct ladders on the right side of the road, he said, adding that two houses near the area have yet to be removed to make space for the track. The Chinese government had handed over the 10.4 km Kalanki-Koteshwor road expansion project to the Kathmandu Ring Road Improvement Project two years ago.
