KATHMANDU – In view of recurring obstructions on the BP Highway, especially in the section of Roshi River, the security bodies have urged everyone travelling through this route to be aware of the road condition before travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The District Security Committee has already decided to close the highway at night from Tuesday for an indefinite period. The road closure is effective from 5:00 pm to 5:00 am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This decision came in the wake of rainfall wreaking havoc on Roshi River bank, from where temporary diversion is made to ease the transport. The riverside highway was damaged massively two years back, for which permanent solution is awaited. An 18-km stretch of the BP Highway is currently facing hindrances and sometime even causing grave threat to passengers on Roshi River bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An information officer at the District Police Office, Deputy Superintendent of Police, Rabin Bista, shared that the Highway was closed indefinitely from Tuesday during night because the flood in Roshi River was posing severe threat to passengers and vehicles travelling to and from Kathmandu, federal capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Two days back, a joint squad of security forces had to conduct a rescue operation at night after five microbuses trapped in the flooded Roshi River following the rainfall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
