Landslides pose significant risks to travellers, local communities, and infrastructure in the Himalayan region. Roads such as National Highway 7 and others in Kashmir, Sikkim, and Manipur have been flagged for slope instability. The risks are heightened during monsoon seasons, with 81% of landslides occurring within 100 metres of under-construction roads. These events disrupt connectivity, isolate communities, and increase the likelihood of accidents. Additionally, poorly designed roads and bridges can exacerbate flooding and erosion, further endangering lives and property. The economic costs of repairing damaged infrastructure and the environmental impact of construction activities also remain significant concerns.
