Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari this week laid the foundation stone of a 1.5-km-long, 2-lane elevated reinforced concrete (RCC) bridge near Panduka on the Son River in Rohtas, Bihar, to be built at a cost of Rs 2.10 billion. Present at the occasion were Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejaswi Yadav, as well as other politicians and officials.
Gadkari said with the construction of this bridge, NH-19 and NH-39 will be directly connected, which will facilitate traffic between Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. The traffic pressure on Dehri bridge will also be reduced, he added.
The Minister said with the construction of this bridge in the Panduka area, it will be easy to reach the market for industrial, agricultural and dairy products of nearby areas and states. It will also save time and fuel, he added.
