Authorities have completely halted vehicle movement along the BP Highway after the water level in the Roshi River surged on Saturday.

Traffic was suspended as rising river flow, landslides, mudslides, and falling rocks in several areas had posed serious risks.

Continuous rainfall since Friday night in most parts of Kavre has caused the Roshi River to swell dangerously. Since the highway also serves as a diversion route, authorities decided to impose a complete ban on vehicle movement to minimize potential risks.
