A new bridge crossing over the Indus River in Sukkur will greatly reduce the traffic burden on the ageing Lansdowne Bridge built by the British in 1889, said the Sindh Information and Local Government Minister Syed Nasir Hussain Shah on Sunday.
During a visit to the proposed construction site for a new bridge to connect Sukkur and Rohri cities across the Indus River, he directed Sukkur Deputy Commissioner Rana Adeel Taswar to prepare a feasibility report for the project at the earliest.
