PM to inaugurate 6-lane bridge in Bihar on Aug 22, travel time to come down
The New Indian Express Thrissur
|August 20, 2025
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi will dedicate to the nation the Aunta-Simaria project featuring a six-lane, 1.8 km-long bridge over the Ganga River in Bihar on August 22.
The link will reduce travel distance by about 100 km for heavy vehicles ferrying between north and south Bihar and provide direct connectivity between Mokama in Patna District and Begusarai. Modi had laid the foundation in October 2017. The project is part of National Highway 31. The bridge has been constructed parallel to the existing two-lane rail-cum-road bridge "Rajendra Setu", which is almost seven decades old and needs repair.
