Kathmandu’s pedestrian peril: Hazardous footpaths pose risks



KATHMANDU: Planning to stroll through Bhotahiti to Asan for shopping?

You might want to reconsider. Thanks to ongoing sewerage and underground electrification projects, many footpaths in Kathmandu Valley have turned into hazardous zones.

Dillibazar and Ghattekulo are among the areas currently grappling with these safety concerns.

The longstanding tradition of rushing construction projects in the final two months before the next year’s budget persists, exacerbating the problem.

Following Wednesday’s rain, the dug-up roads have become even more treacherous, posing serious risks to pedestrians.
