Additional distance of more than 100 kilometers will be less
Due to the poor condition of Rajendra Setu, heavy vehicles were forced to change the route again by covering a longer distance. The new bridge will reduce the additional distance of over 100 km in the journey between North Bihar (Begusarai, Supaul, Madhubani, Purnia, Araria etc.) and South Bihar (Sheikhpura, Nawada, Lakhisarai etc.) for heavy vehicles. This will also reduce the problem of traffic jam in other parts of the area, as heavy vehicles will no longer make a long round. This bridge will also promote the surrounding areas, especially the economic development of North Bihar, which depend on South Bihar and Jharkhand for the supply of raw materials.
