The canal road connecting Bhualuan canal bridge to Nawalpur canal bridge, Tetahli bridge, and then to Kuriyapur village in Barharia block of Siwan district has been in a state of disrepair for a long time. The situation worsens during the monsoon, causing significant inconvenience to commuters.

From Bhualuan to Kuriyapur, the road is riddled with deep potholes, and bricks have come loose. A section of the road past Nawalpur canal has also caved in. During rains, these potholes fill with water and mud, exacerbating the problem. In contrast, the section of the canal road from Tarwara to Bhualuan is mostly paved, making travel smoother there. Villagers believe that paving the Bhualuan to Kuriyapur stretch would create a much-needed alternative route from Tarwara to Tetahli.

Locals suggest that improving this canal road and developing it as an alternative route could significantly reduce traffic congestion on the main roads of Barharia market. Currently, vehicles commuting from Tarwara, Tetahli, and surrounding areas often cause traffic jams in the market. A better canal road would provide an alternative, easing the pressure on the town's main arteries.

It is reported that the canal road was constructed with bricks by the Bihar government's Water Resources Department three to four decades ago for the convenience of commuters. Due to a lack of proper maintenance over the years, the road is now severely damaged, with many sections turning into potholes. Villagers are demanding that instead of mere repairs, the road should be permanently paved. Former Deputy Chief Faheem Alam and other villagers highlighted that paving the Bhualuan to Kuriyapur section would provide a vital alternative route for people traveling from Tarwara to major cities like Patna, Siwan, Chhapra, Motihari, and Gopalganj.
