Government says it is advancing several major bridge projects across the country under the “Big Push Programme” to improve road connectivity and spur economic growth.
The initiative targets critical bridges that will link farming communities to markets, reduce travel time, and open up new trade routes in various regions.
According to officials, the projects are part of a broader infrastructure drive to address decades-old gaps in the road network and support agriculture, commerce, and tourism.
Contractors have been tasked to fast-track construction while maintaining quality and safety standards. Monitoring teams are also on the ground to ensure timelines are met.
Residents and business operators in beneficiary areas have welcomed the move, saying the new bridges will cut costs, improve access, and create jobs during and after construction.
