The New Pamban Bridge is a railway bridge that will connect the town of Mandapam in mainland India with Rameswaram on Pamban Island. The new bridge is constructed parallel to the old Pamban Bridge opened in 1914 and was planned to replace the same. It spans a length of 2.07 km and includes a 72 m vertical lifting section. It is the first vertical lift sea bridge in India and is expected to be opened for traffic by late 2024.
