The Road Construction Department at Rasuwa has suggested helicopter operators to avoid flying near the riverbank as the undergoing Syafrubesi-Mailung road project has higher potential of producing incidents.
Due to the excessive use of explosives in breaking down the mighty rocks at the construction site, the rocks may collide with the helicopters even at the far distance.” The Syafrubesi-Mailung road construction department has already requested the respective helicopter operators to fly their helicopters higher than the elevation of the river.
The department has also requested heli-operators to inform at least 30 minutes before if the helicopter is to be flown near the river in adverse weather conditions.
