The new Majherhat Bridge

The new Majherhat Bridge will be built at a cost of 160 crore. An initiative has been taken by the State Public Works Department and a company has been engaged for construction of the new bridge. On 25th October a Punjab-based company was selected after the completion of the tender process. Tenders were called by the government on behalf of any organization for constructing the new bridge. The bridge is 54-years-old and for this reason the state government has taken the decision to demolish the entire structure and replace the old one with the new structure.
