Designing, building and maintaining the next generation of sustainable, safe and cost-effective bridges

Bridges, including flyovers, railway bridges, elevated metro structures and sea links, are a major part of the Indian government’s far reaching infrastructure plans. Bridges are an integral part of urban development. Not only do they help to reduce congestion in transpotation, but also form linkage that enhance the competitiveness of key centers of growth in the country.

The 11th five year plan has brought in a special focus on Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) as a way of developing the national highway road network. Sustainability, safety and cost-effectiveness combined with structural superiority, maintainence and rehablitation are some of the focus areas when building bridges with a longer life span. Iconic bridges, balancing both aesthetics and functionality, are planned for the Indian metro cities.
