Mahandri bazar risk evaluation and recommendations
The collapse of Mahandri Bridge caused considerable traffic interruptions on vital highways linking Mansehra, Kaghan, Naran and Babusar, causing great problems for both locals and visitors. Following the recent collapse and rebuilding of this bridge and landslide on nearby mountain that is composed of loose soil, there remains a heightened risk of future incidents due to on-going monsoon flow and potential landslides in the area. For enhanced risk reduction, immediate measures are required to ensure the stability and safety of the rebuilt bridge and the surrounding environment.
