Construction of the Sanga underpass, a key component of the Suryabinayak–Dhulikhel road expansion project, is nearing completion with approximately 90 percent of the work finished. The underpass aims to improve traffic flow and facilitate travel on the Arniko Highway by addressing the steep incline in the Sanga area. Vehicles exiting the Kathmandu Valley will use the underpass, while those entering will use the upper road.

  • The total length of the underpass is 1,110 meters, featuring a height of 6 meters and a width of 10.5 meters.
  • The main structure and approach roads are complete, with work on retaining walls and pavement in the final stages.
  • The project is being executed by the contractor responsible for the Suryabinayak–Sanga road section.
