Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Completes 480-Metre Sabarmati River Bridge
The Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train project has completed a 480-metre-long, 36-metre-high bridge over the Sabarmati River near Ahmedabad. Supported by eight circular piers, the bridge uses longer spans of up to 76 metres to minimize obstruction to the river waterway. Positioned between Sabarmati and Ahmedabad stations, the structure is designed to maintain clearance from existing infrastructure, including the nearby Ahmedabad-Delhi railway line. This bridge is a key component of the bullet train corridor.
