The expansion of the Muglin-Pokhara section under the Prithvi Highway is going on rapidly. During the expansion of the highway, the partial obstruction for a month has been removed. The obstruction in Bandipur rural municipality-4 Bimalnagar Chunpahara of Tanahun under Mugling-Pokhara (eastern section) of the highway which is under expansion has been removed from today.

The commuters had to suffer due to the traffic disruption for rock cutting work in Bimalnagar Chunpahara. It was partially closed for a month to speed up the road construction work at Chunpahara for highway expansion. The 500-meter section from Bimal Nagar to New Bridge has been partially closed, but vehicles will be able to operate smoothly from today.

Engineer Bishnu Prasad Pandey, Information Officer of Mugling-Pokhara Road Plan Eastern Section, informed that the section was closed from time to time for 45 minutes to one hour as per the requirement. He said that as the construction work is ongoing, it may be partially interrupted for about 15 minutes. 

In the eastern section, the agreement was signed on 17th January 2077 and the work started on 2nd Baisakh 2078. China Communication Construction got the contract for the eastern section. The road was planned to be constructed in 2026 with the help of loan from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) due to the increase in the number of vehicles. The eastern section is being constructed at a cost of Rs 6 billion 21 crore 31 lakh.
