The Lambagarh slide zone, located along National Highway (NH)-58 en route to the sacred Badrinath Temple in Uttarakhand, has posed significant challenges to road safety and connectivity for decades. The slopes are extremely steep, averaging 60\u00b0 at the crest and 34\u00b0\u201338\u00b0 below the road. This slip zone has been active since the 1980s, causing frequent traffic disruptions, particularly during the monsoon season. Environmental factors such as heavy rainfall, rockfalls, high seismic activity, flooding, and various anthropogenic activities have further increased the fragility of these Himalayan slopes, contributing to the high incidence of landslides in the region.<\/p>\n\n

To safeguard the thousands of pilgrims traveling to Badrinath annually, the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH) designed a comprehensive solution to counteract destabilizing forces within the restricted roadside space. Maccaferri\u2019s sustainable geosynthetic solutions were implemented, significantly enhancing slope stability. This intervention ensures that the road remains open and safe even during heavy rainfall, reducing risks to lives and improving traffic reliability.<\/p>\n\n

Maccaferri Terramesh\u00ae system is an EPD certified<\/a> modular reinforced soil wall with gabion facia, along with high-strength ParaLink\u00ae geogrids as primary reinforcement, was used to stabilize the valley-side embankment, enabling a safer realignment of the road. The wall, standing 44\u202fm tall, was constructed using locally sourced stones and backfill materials, providing an environmentally responsible and sustainable solution. Additionally, a rockfall embankment, 320\u202fm in length and 10\u202fm in height, was constructed at the hillside toe using back-to-back Terramesh\u00ae units and ParaLink\u00ae reinforcement to protect the road from falling debris and rocks. As part of the project, a new flexible pavement was also laid to further enhance road safety and durability.
