Batanagar Flyover

Batanagar Flyover (Bengali: বাটানগর উড়ালপুল; also known as Sampriti Flyover) is a flyover in the southern suburbs of Kolkata. The two-lane flyover is 7.5 km (4.7 mi) and 28 ft (8.5 m) wide. The flyover connects Batanagar with Jinjira Bazaar. The Sampriti flyover is the first in the city to be built on PPP mode. The centre has given 35 percent of the cost since this is a Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission project and the rest has been borne by the consortium of RiverBank Holdings and its joint venture partner L&T Dabriwala.
