BAGLUNG: The Baglung section of the Kaligandaki Corridor, which was blocked for four days by a massive landslide, has reopened to traffic.
The landslide occurred on Saturday at Kalakhola Bagar in Baglung Municipality-13 following continuous rainfall. Efforts to clear the debris began on Sunday but were delayed due to the scale of the landslide.
According to Police Inspector Keshav Thapa of the District Police Office, Baglung, the road was finally opened on Tuesday afternoon after coordination between the Road Corridor Project and local contractors.
A 40-meter section of the road had to be rerouted to resume traffic flow. Additional rock cutting is still underway to enable the passage of heavy goods vehicles.
