Suspension bridge constructed

Myagdi, July 3: A 366-meter-long suspension bridge was constructed over Darkhola (river) to connect Phaliyagaun and Dar villages in Dhaulagiri Rural Municipality-3, Myagdi.

Initiated by the Local Infrastructure Development Project, the hanging bridge was built at Rs 23.13 million. With the development of the bridge, the locals and tourists along the Dhaulagiri Trekking Circuit have largely benefited as their travel was cut short.

Likewise, the villagers from Dar, Mudi, Khiwang, Nerwang, Bagar and Naura have benefited since they no longer have to travel a long distance along Muna village to reach the headquarters of their rural municipality. The construction company completed the task six months earlier than the given deadline and handed it over to the Local Infrastructure Development Project Office.
