The Bihar government has approved the construction of five new railway overbridges in Kishanganj district, a move aimed at reducing congestion at busy rail crossings. The crossings have long been a bottleneck, causing delays for commuters and freight traffic. The new overbridges will provide uninterrupted flow for vehicles and pedestrians, linking the city with the nearby towns of Thakurgaon and Pothia. The project is part of the state’s broader infrastructure development plan to improve connectivity in the region. Once completed, the overbridges are expected to make travel between Kishanganj and the surrounding areas faster and safer.
