Chenab bridge is the highest railway bridge in the world.
It is located in Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir.
It has been constructed near Kauri village upstream of Salal Dam.
The project is part of the ambitious 272-km long railway line from Udhampur to Baramulla joining Jammu with the Kashmir valley as an all-weather highspeed alternative, named the 'Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link Project'.
The bridge has so far used around 30,350 tonnes of steel, comprising 10,620 tonnes to build the gigantic arch and 14,500 tonnes for the bridge deck, and stands majestically near the Kauri village upstream of Salal Dam.
It is pertinent to note here that for the first time in Indian Railways, incremental launching was done on a transition curve and a longitudinal gradient, both at the same location, for the deck launching of the overpass portion on the bridge. Normally, bridges are built incrementally on a straight or curved platform with a uniform radius. What made the execution of launching activities extremely challenging in this case was inclement weather with stormy winds.
In addition to the Chenab Railway Bridge, 16 additional bridges are also being built on the rough terrain to connect Kashmir with the rest of the country.
