SINDHUPALCHOK: Traffic has been affected along the Araniko Highway after around 100 meters road section caved in at Mahavir in Bahrabise Municipality-9 in the district, said police.

Transportation that was briefly halted along Kathmandu-Bahrabise road resumed on Saturday after around 10 hours following repair works, said Inspector Pancha Kumar Bankhu. “Only one way traffic was allowed.”

"It is uncertain when the transportation gets halted again as repair is temporary," the locals said adding that the road started caving in since one month ago.

Travellers have been affected at large with the Dashain festival around the corner, when people's movement is increased in general.
