Known informally as Byroad, the Tribhuvan Highway is the oldest and the first highway of Nepal and it links Naubise, 25 kilometres (16 mi) west of Kathmandu with the Indian border at Birgunj/Raxaul. It was named in memory of King Tribhuvan (1906–1955).
Its construction was completed with Indian assistance in 1956, and it provided the first serviceable road connection with India. The first regular daily bus service on the highway was operated by Nepal Transport Service in 1959. The bus route ended at the railway station at Amlekhganj, from where travellers took the Nepal Government Railway (NGR) the rest of the way to Birgunj and Raxaul.
