At the time when the Khurkot bridge was washed away by the flood and the road connection was severed, another alternative road route has been opened from the eastern Terai to the capital Kathmandu. Pushpalal (Madhyapahari) highway has been operationalized for vehicles from Ramechhap, Okhaldhunga and Solukhumbu. Another road from Dolalghat, which was blocked by landslides, through Jirokilo, from Nagarkot to Jagati, has been operational since Monday.

In the flood of October 12, a 400-meter section of the Pushpalal highway was eroded by the Tamakoshi river near the Khimti hydropower plant in Kirnetar, Tamakoshi rural municipality-5. With the agreement of political parties including the representative of Khimti hydro power station, chief district officer of Ramechhap and Dolakha, an agreement was reached on Tuesday to dig a new track from the residential area of ​​the hydro power station. 2 excavators were used to dig the track from Wednesday morning. "The work of digging the road track has been completed throughout the day," said Tuvraj Pokharel, chief district officer of Dolakha.

There was a problem in bringing patients to the hospital and transporting essential goods from Ramechhap after the road was cut off. After the opening of the Kirnetar section, Lamosanghu-Jiri road and Araniko highway will be connected via Pushpalal highway through Manthali in Ramechhap. Before the opening of the BP highway, the residents of the area used to travel through this road. Essential transportation is closed after the motorable bridge of the Sunkoshi River collapsed in Khurkot under the Pushpalal Highway, which directly connects parts of Okhaldhunga and Solukhumbu with Ramechhap to the capital. Another motorable bridge of Khandadevi Rural Municipality-1 Khairnighat has also been swept away by the flood. Although the motorable bridge in Sitkha, Khandadevi rural municipality-3, which connects the BP highway, the highway is blocked due to the flooding of the Roshi River in Kavre.

BP highway is operational from Bardibas to near Moolkot in Sindhuli. After a 30 km journey from Khurkot, one can leave Manthali after crossing the road for about 34 km through Khandadevi Rural Municipality through the Sitkha motorable bridge connecting Ramechhap and Sindhuli. The road is black. Directly from Manthali via Pushpalal Highway via Charikot in Dolakha, Arani Highway connects the capital. By using this alternative route from Bardibas, one has to travel 315 km to reach the capital.
