The bridge, which was scheduled to be completed by April 2082, was completed a year late when the flood of October 2081 destroyed the under-construction structure.

A reinforced concrete RCC bridge using arch technology has been constructed over the Namdu River, which lies under the road section from Shivalaya Temple in the district headquarters Phidim to Ranitar-Lungrupa-Goruwa.
Namdu River separates Phidim Municipality 1 and 7. The Infrastructure Development Office Panchthar under the Koshi Province Government constructed the bridge at a cost of Rs 34.5 million.
An agreement was signed with Sanjeev Nirman Sewa in Phidim to construct the 30.38-meter-long bridge.
The project is being supported by the Local Road Bridge Program (LRBP) and the Swiss Government Development Cooperation (SDC), according to the Infrastructure Development Office.
Technicians say that the arch-shaped RCC bridge will be strong and long-lasting, capable of withstanding flood flows. Technicians also say that such a structure will distribute the load on the bridge equally on both sides, reducing the risk.
The construction of this bridge, which began in 2080, was targeted to be completed by April 2082. The work was delayed by a year when the flood of 2081 Asoj 12 destroyed the under-construction structure.
After the bridge came into operation, the problem of movement faced by the locals during the rainy season has ended.
In addition, the Shivalaya-Ranitarar-Lungruppa-Goruwa road section has made it easier for passengers, vehicles and transport vehicles to travel from Phidim to Ranitar and Lungrupa.
