The Tribhuvan Highway has been obstructed due to dense cold waves at Simbhanjyang. As a result, vehicles heading to Kathmandu from Hetauda and vice versa have been stuck midway, said Inspector Shree Ram Timalsina.
Earlier, the highway that was obstructed due to snowfall resumed on Thursday evening. Transportation will reopen when the weather condition is good, he said.
Similarly, Humla and the upper hills of western Nepal are almost completely unreachable due to thick snow blankets on the roads and highways.
A section of the east-west highway in Nawalparasi has also been completely blocked due to extreme fog and low visibility.
