Naubatpur, Patna

Bihar government has proposed a 150-km-long ring road around Patna under the Bharatmala program, with an estimated cost of ₹15,000 crore. This project aims to integrate 12 national and 5 state highways, construct two major bridges over the Ganga, and ease traffic congestion.

Patna officials have collected over Rs 2.25 crore in fines and dismantled 1,402 unauthorized structures during anti-encroachment drives. Stringent measures are being taken to clear obstructions on major routes, aiming to improve traffic flow and public movement. This crackdown is expected to lead to smoother traffic and more organized public spaces.
