Patna-Gaya four-lane highway to open by July 2025

The Patna-Gaya-Dobhi four-lane highway is nearing completion, with officials expecting it to open by July. The 127-km stretch will allow travel between Patna and Gaya in 1.5 to 2 hours. Over 99% of the project is complete, with only minor work remaining on railway overbridges. The project began in 2019 with a budget of Rs 1,910 crore. Additionally, a new 3.9-km road connecting the Patna Bypass to the highway is under construction. This road aims to improve connectivity and reduce congestion in the area by 2025.
