Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Project Completes Portal Beams Over Vadodara Railway Line
The Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train project has completed all 14 portal beams over the Delhi-Mumbai main railway line in Vadodara, Gujarat, marking a significant construction milestone. These large structural supports, built on-site due to space and engineering constraints, will carry the elevated viaduct for the high-speed rail corridor. The next phase involves installing 40-metre-long composite girders. The work required specialized engineering and close coordination with Indian Railways to manage construction over active railway lines.
