Seven National Highways in Bihar will soon improve road connectivity and make travel faster across the state. The projects will benefit 21 districts and strengthen transport links between major towns and cities. These roads will support economic activity and make movement easier for people and goods. The Seven National Highways in Bihar plan is part of a major effort to upgrade the state’s road infrastructure.
To speed up the projects, the state government will form a Competent Authority for Land Acquisition (CALA) in the concerned districts. This authority will manage land acquisition and handle compensation issues for landowners. Officials believe this step will reduce delays and help construction start quickly.
Major projects include the Patna–Ara–Sasaram (NH-119A) route, Mokama–Munger (NH-33), Sahebganj–Areraj (NH-139W), the Patna–Purnia Expressway, the Gorakhpur–Siliguri High-Speed Corridor, the Raxaul–Haldia High-Speed Corridor, and NH-327E from Parsarma to Araria.
Officials say the highways will reduce travel time, boost trade, and support development in many districts.
