The construction of this bridge will start soon. Besides, the DPR of the 24 km Danapur-Bihta expressway in Patna district has also been completed and the tendering process is underway. The construction work will start soon. As we all know, an airport is also proposed at Bihta and the bridge will provide good connectivity to it,” he said.
