Expansion
The central government has approved a 13 kilometer elevated road in Patna, the capital of Bihar. Approval has also been given to spend Rs 2007 crore to build this road. This road will be built from Anishabad NH30 to Gurudwara Mor near Didarganj. This will provide relief to people from traffic jams caused by heavy vehicles. Former Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has expressed gratitude to Union Road Construction Minister Nitin Gadkari for approving this scheme.
You will be able to cover a distance of 13 kilometers in less time
According to the information, there is a jam situation on Patna’s NH-30 from day to night, which makes movement very difficult. Due to trucks, tractors, private buses and a large number of school buses, there is a situation of severe jam. MP Ravi Shankar Prasad, after looking at all this, found after technical investigation that the only option is an elevated road of about 13 kilometers from Anishabad to Gurudwara Mor near Didarganj. Regarding this problem, he had also requested the Union Minister of Road Construction Nitin Gadkari in this regard and had also corresponded several times. Now both its administrative and financial approval has been received and an amount of Rs 2007 crore will be spent on it. Action has started towards making its detailed project report and it will also be completed in a few months. With the completion of this big project, now buses, trucks, cars and other heavy vehicles will be able to travel directly through the elevated road, cross the toll tax and travel to Fatuha, Bakhtiyarpur, Barh, Mokama etc. in less time.
Request to connect NH-83 to NH 30
After approving the scheme, MP Ravi Shankar Prasad has written a letter to him for public importance and scheme of public interest, in which NH-83 coming from Dobhi ends after Punpun in Patna and NH-30 passes through Didarganj. In this letter, he has requested to connect NH-83 and NH-30 (Punpun to Didarganj) by expanding the current Punpun safety dam road. At present, hundreds of villagers travel through this safety dam, in which hundreds of villages including Kandap, Taranpur, Lanka Kachuara, Gopalpur, Gaurichak, Fatehpur, Madhopur, Yamunapur, Alavalpur, Daulatpur are prominent. By connecting NH-83 Punpun to NH-30 Didarganj, this road will work as the ring road of Patna and there will be a lot of reduction in the number of vehicles coming to Patna city. All vehicles coming from Dobhi-Gaya will pass through Didarganj to Fatuha, Bakhtiyarpur, Bhagalpur etc. This will lead to rapid development of the entire area. He has also requested action in this direction. Widening and expansion of the security dam and connecting both the highways will lead to a lot of development in the rural area of Patna.
