why are heavy machines blocked from chilime?

Answered by Chito · asked 9 times

Based on the latest reports, access routes in the region are facing severe disruptions rather than a deliberate policy targeting Chilime alone. In nearby areas like the Besisahar–Chame section, locals have blocked heavy vehicles (specifically those with more than six wheels) because heavy monsoon rains have turned the damaged roads muddy, and residents fear heavy loads will cause the roadbeds to collapse completely. Additionally, blocked access roads have severely hindered the transport of heavy equipment to hydropower project areas like Upper Trishuli-3B, where authorities have even had to consider dismantling large excavators just to move them through.
