Ara–Chhapra Bridge, Extradosed bridge in Bihar, India
The Ara-Chhapra Bridge extends 4,350 meters across the Ganges River with a concrete structure featuring a span of 120 meters and width of 24 meters.
The construction of this engineering project started in July 2010 and reached completion in June 2017, marking a new chapter in Bihar's infrastructure development.
The bridge connects the Bhojpuri-speaking regions of Bihar, linking the districts of Bhojpur and Saran through a four-lane transportation corridor.
This crossing reduces the travel distance between Arrah and Chhapra from 130 kilometers to 40 kilometers, eliminating the need to pass through Patna district.
The structure stands as the longest multi-span extradosed bridge worldwide, utilizing five stay cables arranged in a harp configuration over navigation spans.
