CCCC has completed and opened the expansion of the Muglin–Pokhara road project (eastern sector) in Nepal. The road is a key segment of the main transport corridor linking Nepal's capital, Kathmandu, with the country's second-largest city, Pokhara.

The project spans about 41 kilometers, upgrading the previous aging two-lane road into a modern four-lane highway with a design speed of 60 km/h. The upgraded road will improve connectivity among major cities, boosting regional economic growth and tourism.
