The bridge is being built on the River Ganga in <\/span>Begusarai<\/span> (Bihar).<\/span><\/p>\n

It will link the <\/span>riverine areas of Matihani and Sambho in Begusarai and would also connect NH-31 (Patna-Mokama) and NH-80 (Begusarai-Purnea).<\/span><\/p>\n

The National Highway Authority of India has made a rare exception to clear the feasibility report of the bridge. As per the rule, within 50 km of a bridge, upstream or downstream, a new bridge cannot be considered.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But in this case, the shortening of travel distance, potential benefits to the rural economy and upcoming Assembly polls seem to have worked in the project\u2019s favour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Benefits of the bridge: <\/b>The bridge would shorten the travel route from North Bihar to South Bihar, Orissa, Jharkhand and Nepal by at least 70 km.<\/span><\/p>\n

It would also hold greater importance in terms of the safety of 13 industrial units in Begusarai and Barauni by providing a base and easy access to NDRF teams in times of any industrial disaster.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
