Bihar’s Big Leap in Connectivity: 6+ Railway Overbridges Set to Launch This Year!
Bihar is all set to receive a long-awaited infrastructure boost in 2025. With over half a dozen Railway Over Bridges (ROBs) nearing completion, daily commuting in several districts is about to become faster, safer, and significantly more convenient.
For decades, waiting at railway crossings has been a frustrating part of everyday life. However, with these ROBs coming into existence, that is about to change dramatically. The state is now stepping into a new era of road-rail integration and public convenience.
Let’s take a closer look at the major ROBs under construction and their current status:
Chausa-Gahmar ROB (Buxar):
The rail section is complete. Meanwhile, the Bihar State Bridge Construction Corporation (BSBCC) is building the approach road, which is expected to be completed by June 2025.
Buxar-Baruna ROB:
Construction work is actively underway and, notably, it is on track to finish by mid-2025.
Karbhandia-Mughalsarai ROB (Rohtas):
While the railway portion is progressing, the approach road is also under construction. The full structure is likely to be completed by the end of this year.
Gangoli-Deoria-Pahleja ROB (Rohtas):
In this case, BSBCC is working on the access roads, and the deadline for completion remains set for 2025.
Pusauli-Muthani ROB (Kaimur):
Since the railway structure is already complete, the focus is now on finalizing the approach road. Progress is steady and in line with projections.
Parsauni-Sitamarhi ROB (Sitamarhi):
Although the railway portion is still ongoing, the approach road is expected to be completed by December 2025.
Naugachhia-Katoria ROB (Bhagalpur):
Fortunately, this ROB is close to full completion and is slated to be ready by year-end.
These overbridges are more than just infrastructure projects. In fact, they offer real, measurable benefits that touch lives daily.
Smoother traffic flow:
No more waiting for trains to pass; vehicles will move seamlessly.
Fewer road accidents:
As crossings get replaced, the risk of mishaps will reduce significantly.
Saved travel time:
Time saved on the road translates to more productivity and less stress.
Boosted local economy:
Faster, safer travel means better access to goods, jobs, and education.
Additionally, the completion of these ROBs sends a strong message that Bihar is finally catching up on long-pending infrastructure promises.
These projects fall under a joint effort — the Cost Sharing Scheme between Indian Railways and the Government of Bihar.
The Railway Ministry takes care of the primary bridge structure.
Meanwhile, the Bihar State Bridge Construction Corporation (BSBCC) is tasked with building and completing the approach roads.
This strong collaboration is a reflection of effective public sector coordination — one that prioritizes public safety and convenience over delays and red tape.
While these ROBs are a significant achievement, they’re only a piece of the puzzle. As Bihar continues to grow, such developments pave the way for further progress in transportation, logistics, and urban mobility.
Moreover, the commitment to completing these projects within this year reflects a focused approach to governance. Clearly, Bihar is not just planning for the future — it’s building it.
