Construction of the Kathmandu–Terai Fast Track has reached 45.16 percent physical completion. The Rs 2.13 billion project, overseen by the Nepal Army, has achieved tunnel breakthroughs in four of the planned seven tunnels at Dhedre and Lendanda. Two additional tunnel pairs are expected to be completed within the current fiscal year. The 70.97-kilometer expressway includes 89 bridges, of which 13 major structures have been completed. The project aims to reduce travel time between Kathmandu and Nijgadh to under an hour and is scheduled for completion by April 13, 2027.
