Landslides have compelled the Narayanghat-Mugling road section and Siddharth highway to operate under restricted one-way conditions. A similar situation is witnessed along the Beni-Jomsom Road, Pasang Lhamu Highway, Kanti Lokpath Road, BP Highway, and the Tamor Corridor, all impeded by landslide occurrences.
