All To Know About the Patna Marine Drive
Nitish Kumar, the chief minister of Bihar, dedicated the Ganga Path’s initial segment in Patna on Friday 24 June, giving the city its very own “Marine Drive.” The hall has been compared to Mumbai‘s Marine Drive and London’s Thames Path. It connects Digha to Patna Medical College and Hospital previously the Prince of Wales Medical College. On a 13 m excessive dam, the street has grown alongside the Ganga River.
The Ganga Path Improvement Project includes a 20.5km long, four-lane, limited-access highway between Digha and Didarganj in Patna, and this section is a part of that project. The street could be extended in the second part for approximately 18 km to Fatuha, a significant commercial hub located 24 km to the east of Patna. The JP Ganga Path has a section that is presently complete. It could be completed by the beginning of 2024 to provide people with convenience. Excellent work is being done on the painting’s completion of the enlargement on both sides, At the Friday inauguration ceremony, the Chief Minister was heard making a statement that was later reported.
The Housing and Urban Development Corporation of the Government of India and the Government of Bihar are working together to complete the project. An estimated Rs 3,160 crore will go toward the venture. The project was conceptualized in 2010, and it was widely disseminated by the government in 2011. On October 11, 2013, the birth anniversary of activist and body presser Jayaprakash Narayan, referred to as JP, Chief Minister Kumar laid the cornerstone for the project. The construction of the Ganga Path started in 2013, but for several years, it was put on hold for various reasons. In September of last year, we obtained a loan from Housing and Urban Development Corporation for Rs 2,000 crore, which caused the painting to be expedited “After the ceremony, Nitin Nabin, the minister of road construction in Bihar, gave the media instructions.
According to the minister, the street will cut the travel time between Digha and PMCH, a section prone to traffic bottlenecks, by half to twenty minutes. The new length would provide simple traffic congestion at Ashok Rajpath and smooth travel between east and west Patna. The Ganga Path is a component of Patna’s larger plan for urban renewal. Once completed, it could connect National Highway 30 to the west, where the AIIMS-Digha Accelerated Hall is located, and to the east, where the Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur Bridge over the River Ganga will soon be built.
Under a World Bank-funded project, Patna is also working to develop a riverfront along the Ganga in addition to the “Marine Drive”. 20 ghats and 3 cultural centers are to be developed over a 2.3-kilometer area as part of this project. But there have been numerous delays with the project.
