Kathmandu. The hotel business around the Dodhara Chandani suspension bridge collapsed and the traffic on the other side of the bridge has collapsed. The flood in the Mahakali River in the second week of September collapsed the bridge linking Dodhara Chandani and Bhimdatta municipalities, which has reduced the number of domestic and foreign tourists visiting the area.
“When one of the pillars of the bridge collapsed, it was as if we were locked in our mouths.” Mohan Bahadur Singh, a hotelier, said, “The local administration has locked both sides of the bridge. When the movement was completely stopped, the business came to a standstill.” ”
After the collapse of the bridge, the technical team has submitted a report stating that the bridge will cost Rs 20 crore and it will take a year to complete the bridge. “During Dashain and Tihar, there is a lot of tourist traffic here, so we used to earn a whole year during this time,” said Singh, adding, “Still, people come to see the suspension bridge through the four-lane bridge, but the environment is not ready to see it.” He said that the locals of Dodhara Chandani used to travel on two-wheelers and the suspension bridge as it was short in terms of distance.TAG_OPEN_div_22
