Chenab Bridge &#8211; Now the world&#8217;s tallest railway bridge &#8211; is located at an altitude of 359 meters above the river floor, which has become a symbol of Indian engineering skills and national resolve.<\/p>\n<p>The bridge is part of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla rail link (USBRL) project, which not only connects the geographical distance, but also expectations-a one-season, reliable rail route connecting the Kashmir Valley to the whole of India.<\/p>\n<p>The bridge built on the Chenab River near Salal Dam is a total of 1,315 meters long, with a 467 meter main arch spin. It is capable of withstanding air speeds up to 266 km\/h. In height, this bridge is higher than the Eiffel Tower and the height from river floor to rail path is about five times more than the Qutub Minar.<\/p>\n<p>The manufacture of this amazing structure used 28,000 MT steel and Indian Railways first used the cable crane system &#8211; two huge cable cars and more than 100 meters high pylon, the construction material was transported crossing the 915 meter wide valley.<br \/>This bridge, built on the geological and unstable plane of the Himalayas, is not just a structural achievement, but it is a symbol of India&#8217;s courage, innovation and unconcerned commitment to reach out to far-flung areas.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as this bridge stands proudly on Chenab, it does not only connect two mountains-it combines the new era of dreams, development and Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Srinagar While snow -covered mountains touch the sky and the Chenab river cuts the earth deeply, India has adapted its firm will in steel in this difficult terrain.
