Nepal's First Overpass Road Infrastructure In Gwarko Ready For Operation
People walk and cycle over the newly built overpass infrastructure in Gwarko of Lalitpur, on June 19, 2025. The long-awaited overpass is built to ease chronic traffic congestion along the Koteshwar-Gwarko-Kalanki corridor of the Kathmandu Valley. Initiated in February 2022 under the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) model, the four-lane overpass is originally slated for completion in two years. From Gwarko intersection, the structure spans 320 meters towards Koteshwar and 185 meters towards Satdobato, with both sides featuring four layers of blacktopping. The ramp stands 10.2 meters high. The project is awarded at a contract value of Rs176.68 million. Once operational, the contractor is responsible for the maintenance for the next five years. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
