Bailey Bridges in Nepal — 73.2 m Erected in 5 Days, Proven Supplier
Nepal is one of Evercross's deepest reference markets. After the 2024 floods, an Evercross 73.2 m Bailey bridge was erected in just 5 days, reopening the Nuwakot–Rasuwa corridor — alongside hydropower access bridges and post-disaster reconstructions.
Why Nepal needs fast-deploy steel bridges
- Monsoon floods and landslides annually cut Prithvi and Araniko highway corridors — rapid-span restoration is national policy.
- Run-of-river hydropower construction needs temporary heavy-load bridges on steep gorges.
- Mountain single spans (60-90 m) with cantilever launching — no crane access on most sites.
