The basic idea of the new route sounds great, it shows how progress and development can continue without impinging on Nepal's vital tourism industry. I have heard a few people criticise road building in rural Nepal, which I personally find disgusting, as without a transport system how can food aid be distributed to those who need it the most.

I agree that the roads are a good thing, and totally understand why they need to be built. Progress is good! It is just too bad that it has to infringe on what was once considered one of the greatest hikes in the world. That said, the new route sounds wonderful too.
