विजौरी–कोठेरी सडक धमाधम स्तरोन्नति हुँदै
Tulsipur (Dang), October 5.
The upgradation work on the road section connecting Bijauri to Kothari in Dang district is progressing at a rapid pace. Currently, the construction of drains and sub-base laying are in their final stages.
The 15.58-kilometer road stretch is being blacktopped at a cost of Rs 448.7 million. Under the Rural Connectivity Improvement Project operated under the Lumbini Provincial Government, the road will extend from Bijauri through Basadbara, Jamuni, Lakshmipur, South Kurariya, and Kanjawar to reach Kothari.
Silan Baral, a representative of the construction company MC-ANS BG JV, Kathmandu, stated that asphalt blacktopping will commence shortly. He mentioned that to expedite construction, the company has collaborated with contractors, construction material suppliers, and rental service providers registered with Tulsipur Sub-Metropolitan City.
Baral noted that coordinating with local construction contractors has facilitated the smooth mobilization of necessary equipment, materials, and workforce. The road will be paved using asphalt technology, and key equipment, including an asphalt plant, has already been installed on-site.
He added that the target is to complete base and sub-base works before the Dashain festival, with high emphasis placed on construction quality. The company aims to complete the entire project by April 2027 (Chaitra).
