Mahatma Gandhi Setu, Steel and concrete bridge in Patna, India.
The Mahatma Gandhi Setu stretches across the Ganges River for 5,750 meters, connecting the cities of Patna and Hajipur in Bihar state.
Prime Minister Indira Gandhi inaugurated this transportation infrastructure in May 1982, making it the longest river bridge in India until 2017.
The bridge carries the name of Mahatma Gandhi, reflecting the Indian values of connection and progress through its daily service to thousands.

The structure underwent a complete renovation where engineers replaced the concrete superstructure with steel trusses while maintaining the original pillars.
