A spokesman for the Roads Department told the BBC that the ongoing belay bridge installation work over the Tadi river at Devighat on the Galchi-Vidur road section is expected to be completed "in about two days".

After destroying the 55-meter long bridge that was there earlier, the Nepalese army is currently using the belay bridge it has to operate the road.

As the road department has only 50 meters long bridge, it is said that the army is working on the connection using his design. Army has 76 meter belaybridges.

Officials have said that their main priority now is to connect Rasuwa with the national highway as soon as possible and to open Prithvi Highway, which has been blocked due to flooding.

The government said that 41 motorable bridges, 45 suspension bridges and about 40 kilometers of roads were damaged due to Rasuwa floods.

After the Rasuwa flood on 10 August, Rasuwa has been cut off from the main road network.

"Our priority is to open the road to Bretravati as soon as possible and connect Rasuwa's Dhunche with the national highway," department spokesman Engineer Shubraj Nyaipane told the BBC.

"Since the river has flowed in about 500 parts of the road in Betravati before, it seems that the first thing to do is to return it. Even in the Betravati market, there is a challenge to remove the stones and soil piled up to 3-4 meters."

Even though the government has already decided to keep the Belybridge in Betravati, the reconstruction of the road before the bridge is seen as a challenge.

Officials say the Belybridge connection is usually possible within two to three weeks.

"But if the track can be opened before then, sometimes there may be an option to put pipes in the river and drive the vehicle," says Neupane.

A one-way track has been opened by cutting the wall connecting Prithvi Highway at Krishnabhir in Dhading after the road was washed away due to floods, officials said, but technicians are still working on a "possible landslide" assessment.

Neupane, spokesperson of the road department, says that based on that, how many walls will be cut, how much soil nailing (the method of fixing iron to stabilize the wall) and how much micropiling (the method of strengthening the foundation) will be done.

"Our goal is to open the track in a few days. But we can say clearly only after the technicians go to the top of the landslide and assess the risk," he said.

"On the basis of which, a decision is made as to how wide the tack will be opened and when the vehicle will be allowed to drive."

Vijay Jaisi, Director General of the Roads Department, who reached Krishnabhir with technicians on Sunday, told the BBC that more was being learned about the latest situation as the track opened at the old "complex landslide" site.

"Some cracks have appeared up to the top of the avalanche. Efforts are being made to stop it immediately and open it as soon as possible. It cannot be said clearly about the time frame," Jaisi said.

According to Neupane, the spokesperson of the road department, even at Parevabhir of Prithvi Highway, there is no problem to open the road from the side of the wall, as in Krishnabhir.

Officials of the road department have said that they are waiting for the Beilibridge that is coming from China to help in the Furkekhola connecting Dhadingbesi.

As none of the currently available belay bridges in Nepal seemed to be useful at that location, officials of the road department said they were considering the option of "finding" a belay bridge of at least 80 meters in length or even a steel bridge.

The Nepali Consul General in Lhasa, Lakshmi Prasad Niraula, confirmed to the BBC that the aid materials sent by China to Nepal last Friday included two belay bridges of 100 meters in length. It is said that the belibridges coming from China will come through the Korla pass.

"Currently Nepal has only small belay bridges and considering the immediate need, 100 meter long double lane belay bridges have been given as assistance," Niraula said.

"If we ask for 30 belay bridges of different lengths in the form of aid, they have said that this process will be continued."

Officials have said that there are some bridges that have been partially affected and that they are also going to study to connect belay bridges to them and operate them.
