Munger Ganga Bridge (Hindi: मुंगेर गंगा सेतु), is a rail-cum-road bridge under construction across the Ganges, at Munger in the Indian state of Bihar.
The 3.19 km long bridge costing Rs. 9,300 million is located 55 km downstream of the Rajendra Setu near Mokama and 68 km upstream of the Vikramshila Setu at Bhagalpur. The bridge will form a link between NH 80 on the southern side of the Ganges and NH 31 on the northern side of the Ganges. It will also help to connect Jamalpur Junction on the Sahibganj Loop line of Eastern Railway to the Sahebpur Kamal junction on the Barauni-Katihar section of East Central Railway.[1]
Construction work on the bridge was inaugurated by Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Prime Minister, through video conference system, in 2002.[2]
