Overview
- The 36-metre-high, 480-metre-long structure is a key river crossing on the 508-kilometre Mumbai–Ahmedabad high-speed rail corridor, running parallel to the Ahmedabad–Delhi main line.
- All foundation and substructure phases have concluded, and crews have begun superstructure work, including pier head assembly and in-situ casting of 23-segment spans.
- Engineers are deploying the Balanced Cantilever Method to assemble long spans without traditional scaffolding by balancing segments sequentially from each pier.
- Eight circular piers with diameters of 6 to 6.5 metres have been installed, and their increased heights ensure the mandated 5.5-metre vertical clearance as per IRC guidelines.
- A structured work permit system, mandatory PPE, catch nets and CCTV monitoring have been implemented to uphold strict safety standards during all height-work operations.
