Nepal Army Uses Temporary Bridges and Ziplines to Restore Connectivity After Floods
Severe floods in Nepal's Nuwakot district have destroyed roads and bridges, isolating communities along the Trishuli River. The Nepalese Army and local volunteers have installed temporary cable crossings, including ziplines and pulley bridges, to restore connectivity and aid relief efforts. Engineering teams are also constructing Bailey bridges to reconnect critical road networks. These measures are vital for delivering supplies and enabling residents to access essential services as recovery and rebuilding continue amid challenging conditions.
