I was thinking yesterday night, there is no space to construct a new Bridge between DAKE & BLYG. Swami Vivekananda Bridge/Willingdon Bridge/Bally Bridge is still going strong at 95 yrs old. At 2029, the bridge will turn 100 yrs & will be outliving its capacity period as per Indian Railways rule. Construction of this Bridge was started in 1925 & was thrown open for rail & road on 1929.
please wait...Translate to EnglishThere ain't no room for building a new bridge between DAKE & BLYG. Swami Vivekananda Bridge/Willingdon Bridge/Bally Bridge is still kickin' it at 95 years old. By 2029, this badass bridge will be hittin' the century mark and surpassing its expected lifespan according to Indian Railways. Construction on this bad boy started in 1925 and it was open for business by 1929, servicing both rail and road traffic.
