Mahendra Highway ((ネパール語:महेन्द्र राजमार्ग)) also called East West Highway ((ネパール語:पुर्ब पश्चिम राजमार्ग)) runs across the Terai region of Nepal, from Mechinagar in the east to Bhim Datta in the west, cutting across the entire width of the country. It is the longest highway in Nepal constructed by CPWD/PWD India engineers and lot of workers. ==Overview== Mostly single lane in each direction, it scarcely qualifies as a highway as per western understanding. Nevertheless, it is a major infrastructure element because east-west travel previously was on dependent upon an older Hulaki Highway built during the Rana regime, and by expensive and limited scheduled flights, or had to utilize Indian trains and buses. The highway crosses the Terai from east to west for . The major destinations along and around the highway are Mechinagar, Bhadrapur, Itahari, Janakpur, Bharatpur, Butwal, Siddharthanagar, Nepalganj, and Bhim Dutta. Other towns on Mahendra Highway are - Birtamod, Damak, Inaruwa, Lahan, Bardibas, and Chisapani South of the highway are five official border crossing points between India and Nepal.〔 Even basic infrastructure in Nepal remains perilously neglected despite the very few "highways" that exist, the busiest highways, including Prithivi Highway, all suffer from similar problems. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mahendra Highway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
