NEW DELHI : Highway projects worth ₹30,000 crore are underway in Bihar, Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Thursday.
The minister was addressing a virtual event after inaugurating Koilwar bridge over river Sone in Bihar, built at a cost of ₹266 crore.
The three-lane 1.5 km-long structure is part of a six-lane bridge being built in place of the existing 138-year-old two-lane bridge for both rail and road traffic. The bridge is a major road for transport between Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.
