NCRTC launches construction of bridge on Yamuna River
The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has started the construction work on a 1.35-km-long bridge project on Yamuna. It will be the 17th such bridge to come up on the river. It is a part of the 82-km-long Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) project between Delhi and Meerut and will run parallel to the existing Delhi Noida Direct flyway and connect Sarai Kale Khan and New Ashok Nagar RRTS stations. It will be the 8th mass transit corridor to be constructed on the river. The length of the bridge crossing over the river will be around 626 metres and the remaining portion will be on the floodplain on both sides. The corporation has started digging the foundation for the piers as the Northern Railway is constructing a new bridge parallel to the Old Yamuna bridge. DMRC has four corridors crossing the river and the construction work on the fifth bridge on the Majlis Park-Maujpur corridor started last year. All the construction activities are being carried out following the prescribed guidelines to avoid any adverse impact on the floodplains.
