Road network of Nepal is categorized into the strategic road network (SRN), which comprises of highways and feeder roads, and the local road network (LRN), comprising of district roads and Urban roads. Nepal’s road network consists of about 64,500 km of roads. Of these, about 13,500 km belong to the SRN, the core network of national highways and feeder roads connecting district headquarters. (Picture : Nepal Road Standard 2070) The network density is low, at 14 kms per 100 km2 and 0.9 km per 1,000 people. 60% of the road network is concentrated in the lowland (Terai) areas. A Department of Roads (DoR’s) survey shows that 50% of the population of the hill areas still must walk two hours to reach an SRN road. Two of the 77 district headquarters, namely Humla, and Dolpa are yet to be connected to the SRN. Page 1 (Source: Sector Assessment [Summary]: Road Transport) Primary Roads in Nepal S. Rd.

Memories from Nepal Thank You from VIIIPALO
Memories written by participants of the study visit 2018 to Malpi International School in Nepal illustrated by Maksymilian Mazgaj My time spent in Nepal was definitely well spent. It wasn’t my first time to visit Asia, but it was very different from what I've seen and experienced on my previous trips to the continent. When you think Nepal you think Mount Everest, but what I've learned is that Nepal is a country of happiness. The people that live there seem to be happy even if living under the most unimaginable conditions. Nepal is a beautiful and fascinating country. Nepali people are also very hospitable, welcoming and grateful for every day. It’s them, who made this trip such a good experience. Visiting Nepal taught me how to look at life from a different perspective and gave me a lot of things to think about. It was also great fun and I’ll surely remember it forever. By Natasza Bryksy *** When you ask somebody what does he knows about Nepal, he will probably say that Nepal is famous for its high mountains. I thought the same before visiting. I think that Nepal is a beautiful place and it ought to be more popular. Beautiful views, delicious cuisine, fabulous temples and the most hospitable people in the world - are all features which make Nepal wonderful. I also learned some new things from my visit to this fantastic country. I was shocked when I saw that, despite how hard people worked, they were still happy and did not complain about anything. -
