Under the Muglin-Pokhara highway improvement plan, the western section will be closed for four hours daily to upgrade the road, according to the road project. This road is going to be completely and partially closed for four hours daily for 10 days from today.

Krishna Bahadur Kunwar, Head of Planning, informed that starting from today, every day from 6 am to 8 am and from 12 noon to 2 am, vehicles are going to be stopped on the road for construction work. Currently, under the Muglin-Pokhara road section, the road from Jamune Bazar in Tanahun to Seti River Bridge in Pokhara is being upgraded. Kunwar said that work is going on for the construction of a two-lane 'precast' and 'prestress' bridge on the 'upstream side' of Pokhara's Vijayapur bridge.

When the main road is closed, two-wheelers and small vehicles will be able to travel from Arghauchok or Budhi Bazar Chowk via Bel Chautara via Chowthe.
