Authorities have banned trailers and other large cargo vehicles from the Narayanghat-Kathmandu road section during the Dashain festival, aiming to ease travel for passenger vehicles expected to face heavy traffic.
The restriction will remain in effect from Ghatasthapana to Purnima. The decision was made at a stakeholder meeting held Tuesday at the Department of Transport Management.
