RITES Limited achieved a major engineering goal in Surat on April 21, 2026. The company successfully launched a massive 45+ meter span Bow String Girder at the Bardoli Road Over Bridge (ROB). This project is part of the ongoing infrastructure work by Indian Railways to improve connectivity and safety.
What are the technical details of the Bardoli ROB girder
The launched girder is a 244 MT Bow String structure with a span of more than 45 meters. Due to the tight space at the site, the team used a special pulling method to place the girder safely. RITES Limited acted as the project consultant and managed the quality and safety standards of the execution.
How does this project impact the local area
The completion of this girder launch brings the Bardoli Road Over Bridge closer to completion. This bridge will help reduce traffic congestion and make travel safer for people crossing the railway tracks. The precision in the launch ensures that the project stays on its planned timeline without compromising on safety.
