The Mumbai Ahmedabad bullet train project has achieved another major milestone with the completion of the Daman Ganga River bridge in Gujarat’s Valsad district. The National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited confirmed the development on Tuesday.
This bridge is the 16th out of 21 river bridges planned in Gujarat and marks the fifth and final bridge completed in the Valsad section. A total of 25 river bridges are being built along the high-speed rail corridor.
Stretching 360 metres, the Daman Ganga bridge includes nine full-span girders and is located between the upcoming Boisar and Vapi bullet train stations. Another train bridge on this route over the Darotha River has also been completed.
The Valsad stretch of the bullet train corridor spans 56 kilometres, including 4.3 kilometres passing through the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli. This segment extends from Zaroli to Vaghaldara village and features several key structures such as the Vapi bullet train station, a 350-metre tunnel, five river bridges and a prestressed concrete bridge.
The other completed river bridges in the Valsad region include the Auranga bridge and the Par bridge, each measuring 320 metres, the Kolak bridge at 160 metres and the Darotha bridge at 80 metres.
These infrastructure developments are a key part of the progress being made on India’s first high-speed rail project, which aims to significantly improve connectivity between Mumbai and Ahmedabad.
