The Bhadrak Ropeway is a gravitational transportation service used to transport goods and money to and from the market in Bhadrak. Bhadrak is a self sufficient village in nepal and most villagers reply on their products being sold at the market to survive, however, the market is a 2 hour walk down a dirt track on the side of a mountain. The gravity ropeway was installed so the people in the village could make a living without making the dangerous treck. The charity responsible for this ropeway is 'Practical Action' who have set up many projects like this in the past and still continue to do so in places with similar situations.
