Bakhtiyarpur-Tajpur Bridge, Transport bridge in Patna, India
The Bakhtiyarpur-Tajpur Bridge is a road bridge spanning the Ganges River, connecting two regions with multiple traffic lanes. It forms part of a larger transportation network that includes approach roads on both sides.
Construction began in 2011 with a foundation stone ceremony, aimed at improving traffic flow across the region. The project faced significant delays due to legal disputes during its development.
The recommencement ceremony included traditional Indian customs, with officials performing rituals and breaking coconuts at the construction site in Samastipur district.
The bridge accommodates multiple traffic lanes for vehicular movement across the river. Visitors can cross it by vehicle or view it from access points along the route.
The project directly connects multiple regions and helps redirect traffic in a heavily congested area, playing a key role in regional connectivity. It represents a substantial infrastructure investment for the state.
