The new alternative flyover project is designed to strengthen the connection between several parts of the city and provide a long-awaited escape from daily traffic congestion. People are expected to experience relief from the long daily traffic jams. This project is considered especially important for congested areas. The city's traffic system will see a major transformation.
Project Investment And Technical Details
The flyover is being constructed at a cost of approximately Rs 292.74 crore. Key technical highlights include:

Phase 1: Work is in its final stages and is expected to be wrapped up within one to two months.
Phase 2: Work on the second stage will accelerate immediately following the first phase's completion.
Final Deadline: The entire project is scheduled to be fully operational by December 2026.
Once finished, this flyover is expected to transform Patna's urban landscape, turning a once-congested commute into a swift and modern travel experience.
