Manakamana Cable Car is set to suspend its services from 12 noon today due to the increasing risk associated with the Trishuli River. The precautionary decision comes amid concerns over the river’s rising water level and the possibility of flood-related hazards in the surrounding area.
The Trishuli River corridor has become a concern as heavy rainfall and increased water flow can affect nearby roads, settlements, and transportation infrastructure. In view of the developing situation, the cable car operator has decided to halt services temporarily to avoid putting passengers and staff at risk.
Temporary Closure of Manakamana Cable Car Focused on Passenger Safety
The suspension is being implemented as a preventive safety measure rather than because of any reported problem with the cable car system itself. Authorities and the operator are prioritizing passenger safety while monitoring the condition of the Trishuli River and surrounding areas.
Passengers planning to visit Manakamana Temple today are advised to check the latest service updates before travelling and to exercise caution in areas affected by flooding or heavy rainfall. Further decisions regarding the resumption of cable car services will depend on the safety situation.
