KATHMANDU, 16 April, 2021 (TON): The construction work of the Dharan-Chatara-Sindhuli-Hetauda road, a stretch of the proposed Madan Bhandari Highway, is in its final stage.

Around 95 percent of road construction works and around 92 percent of bridge construction works have been completed so far, said Niranjan Thapa, an engineer at the road project.

Thapa said, “The construction of the road and all the bridges will be completed by mid-September.”

The government plans to construct the Madan Bhandari Highway from Shantinagar in Jhapa district to Rupal in Dadeldhura district through the Chure region.

However, the construction of the highway, which is being developed as an alternative to the East-West Highway, is to be completed in the next nine years.
