Vehicles drive through the diversions along the BP Highway in Kavrepalanchowk District, Nepal, on December 26, 2025, after it is swept away by a flash flood in September 2024. The section of the BP Highway between Katunje and Barkhekhola is severely damaged by the flash flood in the Rosi River in September 2024. Three sections are rebuilt under the funding of the government of Nepal, while the Japanese government is requested to support the rebuilding of the fourth section. A total budget assurance of Rs. 8.5 billion is secured from the government for the reconstruction of the highway. Out of this, Rs. 7.5 billion is allocated for the three sections in Kavrepalanchok District and Rs. 1 billion for the Sindhuli section. Discussions are ongoing with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) regarding the challenging and winding 5.5-kilometre segment from Barkhekhola to Dalabensi, and JICA shows interest in conducting a field study and potentially undertaking the project. JICA also conducts a feasibility study to construct a tunnel between Khurkot and Chiyabari in Sindhuli, which helps shorten the BP Highway. In anticipation of the upcoming monsoon season and the potential impact on transportation, the Division Road Office in Bhaktapur raises the height of the temporary road built along the flood-damaged areas of the BP Highway.
