BHARATPUR, Dec 22: Horn prohibition has been enforced in Bharatpur, Chitwan, from today onward.

Bharatpur Metropolitan City has come up with the new measure to manage light and heavy vehicles. Owing to growing challenges in managing vehicles with the increase in urbanization, the metropolis has arranged a central bus terminal and compulsory parking in Narayanghat Bus Park from today onward.

A meeting of the stakeholders held at the metropolis a week ago had decided to implement the vehicles management measures from today onward.

According to the decision, the passenger-ferrying rented buses including mini buses and micro buses from the east to Kathmandu and Pokhara shall get in and off the passengers at the central bus park. The buses from the east to Kathmandu and Pokhara also need to go out through the Aanptari bypass route.

Likewise, as per the new arrangements, the buses from the east to the west (Butwal, Dhangadhi, Mahendranagar) shall get in and get off the passengers at the central bus park and pass through Chaubiskothi-Lions Chowk-Pulchowk route.

Similarly, vehicles being operated along the Ring Road of Bharatpur metropolitan area will use Narayanghat Bus Park for parking. Arrangements have been made in such a way that the passenger buses from Bharatpur to Tandi, Parsa, Bhandara and Lotthar shall use the Central Bus Park for parking.

The long route vehicles, including trucks, are prohibited to pass through the route from Pulchowk of Narayanghat to Pokhara Bus Park.

Likewise, vehicles including passenger buses, trucks, lorries and tipper trucks from Kathmandu and Pokhara to the east or the west are prohibited to go to the Narayanghat Bazar from Aanptari.

A decision was also made to prohibit honking from Gondrang to Pulchowk-Aanptari bazaar area. Private and rented vehicles have also been prohibited from parking on the left and right sides of the highway and roads in Narayanghat and Bharatpur.
