    Solution

    The Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu is a 2.86-kilometre-long bridge constructed across the Brahmaputra River in Assam. The six-lane bridge connects Guwahati with North Guwahati and forms an important component of regional connectivity infrastructure. The project was developed at an estimated cost of about ₹3,030 crore. The bridge design uses an extradosed prestressed concrete structure, which is the first of its kind in Northeast India. The infrastructure significantly reduces travel time between the two regions and improves connectivity for trade, tourism, and urban mobility.
