PHULBARI-DHUBRI BRIDGE AERIAL VIEW II LONGEST BRIDGE IN INDIA II ASSAM MEGHALAYA

The Dhubri - Phulbari Bridge is an under-construction bridge over the Brahmaputra River between state of  Assam and Meghalaya 

The Dhubri - Phulbari bridge, to be completed by 2026–27, would be India’s second longest bridge over water after the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link, and would span more than 19 km. This bridge, close to the Bangladesh border, will connect Assam's Dhubri with Meghalaya's Phulbari. It will fill in a missing link of National Highway 127B, connecting Dhubri by road to Tura,  Civil works started in 2019–2020. The project is being funded by Japan International Cooperation Agency and it would be executed by NHIDCL.[citation needed] It is one of 6 proposed bridges on the Brahmaputra.

Larsen and Toubro (L&T) acquired the construction contract for the project, which will feature a navigation bridge including 12.625 km approach viaducts of 3.5 km on the Dubri side and 2.2 km on the Phulbari side, connected with approach roads and interchanges on both sides.

The bridge, to be built with a total cost of approximately Rs 4,997 crore, will meet the long-standing demand of the people from Assam and Meghalaya who have depended on ferry services to travel between the two banks of the river. It will reduce the distance of 205 Km to be travelled by Road to 19 Km, which is the total length of the bridge.
