Patli Path (also known as AIIMS-Digha elevated corridor) is an elevated road in Patna, the capital of Bihar.[1] It was inaugurated by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on 30 November 2020.[2] At the time of inauguration of this elevated road, it was the longest elevated road of Bihar and seventh in India.[3]
This 12.47 km-long elevated road connects J.P. Setu towards Phulwari Sharif and vice versa. Around 8.5 km of the road is elevated structure and the remaining 4 km stretch of road is semi-elevated. The first 2 km of the road from NH-98 near All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna is a two-lane semi-elevated structure. The Digha AIIMS Elevated Road road runs parallel to two-lane Digha Bridge Link Road, and it is built above Rupaspur canal (Digha- Danapur canal).[4][5] As part of this project, there was construction of a railway overbridge (ROB) at Khagaul.
