It should be noted that a double decker bridge is being built near the Gaddigodam Metro station. A railway bridge on the Indian Railways’ Delhi route is located near the girder launching site.
Trains pass through this route on a regular basis. In this case, a large crane has been deployed in this narrow space to launch girders. One girder weighs approximately 9 tonnes. The girder launching work is ongoing 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The construction is taking place at a height of 24 metres above the ground. Heavy and light vehicle movement has been restricted as a result of this. Butibori MIDC is bringing the steel bridge girders here.
