Kaligandaki corridor highway blocked

Baglung- A section of the Kaligandaki corridor highway has been blocked due to a landslide triggered by incessant rains at Dablyang of Baglung Municipality-10.

The main corridor roadway was closed for a week. Suman Niure, the head of the district traffic office, informed that the traffic in the area was blocked due to the landslide on Tuesday night and the vehicles have been advised to use the auxiliary road there.

Earlier, heavy vehicles were banned a month ago after landslides washed away some parts of the corridor highway. He said that due to the blocking of the highway, the means of transport operating in South part Baglung were also closed.

After the corridor was blocked, the residents of Jaimini Municipality, Bareng Rural Municipality and Baglung Municipality were affected.
