Topic Part 1 of 2

Road transport is one of the most crucial forms of infrastructure for economic development. An extensive road network integrates the rural economy with the more developed urban economy and enhances access to schools, hospitals, and markets.

Utmost Priority Connectivity Goal:

The state government has accorded highest priority to expanding the road network so that the capital city of Patna can be reached in less than 5 hours from any part of the state. To achieve this goal, the state government formulated the Road Construction Vision 2020 to ensure smooth road connectivity throughout Bihar.

Public Investment under Saat Nishchay-II (Sushasan Ke Karyakram 2020-25):

Under the Good Governance Programme, the State Government initiated the Sulabh Samparkta (Easy Connectivity) Yojana, which has two main components:

Rural Road Connectivity: Linking villages and rural habitations with administrative hubs (blocks, police stations, subdivisions) and essential service facilities (markets, hospitals, National Highways, and State Highways).
Bypasses and Flyovers in Urban Areas: Facilitating seamless transit and bypassing congestion within densely populated urban centres.
