The Luham-Falabang-Makhkhantakuri-Balle road section, which is a short distance from Salyan to Dang Tulsipur, has been closed for a week.

Triveni rural municipality-4 ward office of the district in coordination with the police, administration and municipality has closed the transport service on that road section for upgrading. After the work was stopped while the vehicle was moving, the traffic operation was stopped for a week at the request of the contractor company, said the ward chairman Chhabi Sharma. On the Luham-Falabang-Makhkhantakuri-Balle section, which is an alternative road of the Rapti highway, more than a dozen small vehicles travel daily.  He made it clear that the

was closed because it would be difficult for vehicles to stop on the road for a long time due to the construction. He has also asked the car dealers and private car owners to use an alternative route. 

Luham-Falabang-Makhkhantakuri-Balle road upgrading work is going on with a budget of 1 crore of the state government and 1 crore of the municipality. He said that after the upgrade, even big vehicles will be in operation.
