|January 06, 2026

The 19.3-km Dhubri-Phulbari bridge, once completed, will become India’s longest river bridge, linking Dhubri in western Assam with Phulbari in Meghalaya. The project is being seen as a game-changer for regional trade and mobility, as it will drastically cut travel time between the two states and provide a direct, all-weather road link across the Brahmaputra.
