Rasuwa, October 25
Authorities have sped up the process to install a Bailey bridge at Syafrubensi. The Bailey bridge would be a motorable facility. The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA) and the local administration are coordinating to set up the bridge.
Chief district officer Kamal Prasad Pande, and executive chief of NDRRMA, Dharma Raj Uprety, conducted a field visit to the various construction sites in Syafrubensi area which was destroyed by the August 26 glacial disaster. A motorable bridge connecting Rasuwa district headquarters, Dhunche, to Syafrubensi was destroyed by the flash flood.
A foundation has been laid for the new bridge. The local administration informed that work on the new bridge was going on around the clock so that the undertaking would be completed before the Tihar festival. The District Administration Office has provided steel cable for setting up the facility.
