The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has granted administrative and financial approval for two key infrastructure projects in Samastipur. These include the four-laning of a 2.056-km stretch of NH-322 from Mathurapur to Mukhtapur RoB and the construction of a new 200-metre HLRCC bridge over the Budhi Gandak river.
The project, estimated at ₹58.6 crore, involves widening and strengthening the road between chainage 67.471 km and 69.256 km on NH-322. The new HLRCC bridge (8x24 metres) will replace the old, damaged screw pile bridge, enhancing connectivity and safety in the region.
