Bihar Rural Roads Project

The Government of India and the Rural Works Department of the State of Bihar are implementing the Bihar Rural Roads Project aiming at improving rural road connectivity in project districts, and enhancing management of rural roads in Bihar. The project combines both investment and knowledge support for the improvement of about 2,500 km of rural roads in Bihar and the management capacity of the Rural Works Department. It will use bio-engineering and other green interventions to make roads resilient to climate change and act as carbon sinks.
