DAMAULI, SEPTEMBER 30

Two-way traffic has been resumed along the Prithvi Highway after clearing the landslide debris since this morning.

The Bimalnagar-Aanbukhaireni section has been opened for two-way traffic after the removal of large boulders that had fallen on the road in Bimalnagar, Bandipur Rural Municipality-4 of Tanahun under the Prithvi Highway.

Due to the landslides triggered by incessant rain, the section which was operated in one way after removing the fallen boulders on Sunday afternoon has been operated for two-way traffic since this morning.

Vehicles were banned for some time in the morning to remove the boulders. Deputy Superintendent of Police Deepak Rai of District Police Office in Tanahu said that all road sections in the district were made operational now.
