05 Sep 2025 CW Team

Delhi / Patna | September 4, 2025 – The Bihar government has approved infrastructure projects worth ₹5,474 crore, including a three-lane bridge over the Gandak river in Muzaffarpur at a cost of ₹589 crore.

The high-level PSC box cell bridge will connect Fatehabad (Paru block) with Chanchalia (Saraiya block). Stretching 2,280 metres in length and 15.55 metres in width, it will include a 2,200-metre access road, reducing the current 49 km detour via Rewa Ghat to just 10 km. The project is expected to ease travel time and cut fuel costs for commuters.

Road Construction Minister Nitin Nabin said the bridge will serve as a lifeline for the region. “These projects will not only improve connectivity but also play a vital role in Bihar’s comprehensive development. The Gandak bridge, in particular, will be a lifeline for the people of Muzaffarpur and surrounding areas,” he noted.

Other major projects cleared include the revised JP Ganga Path in Patna, a 20.5 km stretch from Digha to Didarganj, with a revised allocation of Rs 4,119.06 crore for land acquisition, utility shifting, and rehabilitation.

Additionally, Rs7.65 billion has been earmarked under the Bihar State Highway Project-III (Phase-2), funded by the Asian Development Bank, for upgrading State Highway-95. The project includes the construction of bridges and road over bridges.

“These projects are aimed at strengthening the state’s road network and improving connectivity. Together, they reaffirm Bihar’s commitment to expanding its road infrastructure, modernising facilities, and enabling inclusive growth,” Shri Nabin added.
