Guwahati, Mar 11: The INR 3000 crore Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu, a 6-lane extra-dosed bridge over the Brahmaputra River connecting Guwahati and North Guwahati, has been successfully completed and inaugurated by Hon’ble Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi. The project, executed by SPS Construction, significantly reduces travel time from nearly 2 hours to 10–15 minutes, easing congestion and boosting regional connectivity.
SPS Construction, a leading infrastructure firm with nearly 30 years of experience, has delivered landmark projects across India, including bridges over the Ganga, Satluj, and Brahmaputra, as well as elevated metro viaducts. Rohit Singla, Director, SPS Construction, said,
“Projects like the Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu demonstrate our engineering capability and commitment to building resilient infrastructure that strengthens connectivity and supports economic growth.”
The bridge combines prestressed box girders with cable support, addressing the Brahmaputra’s challenging currents and sediment conditions. This achievement underscores SPS Construction’s expertise in complex river crossings, long-span cable-stayed bridges, and urban transport projects across more than 16 states in India.
