Kathmandu.The Nepali Army has handed over the 240-feet long Acro bridge constructed on the Falaku River at Betravati on the border of Nuwakot and Rasuwa to the Galchi-Rasuwagadhi road project.

During the reconstruction of the road and bridge damaged by the devastating flood that occurred in Bhotekosi on 10th August 2083, the army built an Acro bridge on the Falaku river. Before constructing the bridge, the Nepalese army prepared an access road by breaking the difficult rocks on the road section for about 300 meters. After that, the bridge connection work started on October 20th was completed on October 24th, according to the army.
The newly constructed bridge is 240 feet (73.2 m) long and 18 feet (5.5 m) wide. It can carry a maximum load of 40 tons.
