When the road up from Dumre is blocked — a monsoon landslide, a slip, a stuck truck — there is no quick way to tell, whether you are in the bazaar or down in the valley waiting to come up. This board lets neighbours and drivers mark the stretch where the road is blocked, so the next person can check before setting out. It shows what people on the road are seeing, not an official status. In an emergency, call Nepal Police on 100. The road is the only way in, so one clear report helps the whole ridge.
No road blockages reported right now.

These reports come from people on the road, not the council or police. Anyone can read the board; reporting a blockage takes a free account, which keeps it honest. A report clears itself after about 24 hours, so the board stays current on its own — if a stretch is still blocked after that, someone reports it again. When several people report the same stretch, it’s very likely impassable, not just one driver turning back.
