Ministry says 84% construction work completed

The Rs.535 crores re-construction work on the new 2.05-km Pamban Railway Bridge has gathered pace, with completion expected by March 2023, connecting Rameswaram island to the mainland in Tamil Nadu.

Till Date, 84% of the construction work has been completed. “This state-of-the-art bridge will be the country’s first vertical lift railway sea bridge,” the Ministry of Railways said on 3 Dec 2022.

Sub structure work has been completed fully which includes 333 Piles and 101 Pile caps. Fabrication of all 99 approach spans completed, out of which 76 girders have been launched. Fabrication of Vertical Lift Span girder is nearing completion. Assembling Platform for Vertical Lift Span on Rameswaram end of bridge is getting ready. Track laying work is in progress.

The sea bridge is being executed by Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL). The bridge will allow the Indian Railways to operate trains at a higher speed. It will also increase traffic between the mainland of India and Rameswaram island.

The existing Pamban Rail Bridge, which connects Rameswaram to mainland India, was 105 years old. The original bridge was built in 1914 to connect Mandapam to the Rameswaram island situated in the Gulf of Mannar.

It was the only link connecting the two locations until a new road bridge was built parallel to the sea link in 1988, said the Ministry. fiinews.com
