The Mumbai-Ahmedabad High Speed Rail (MAHSR) project reached a new milestone with the successful installation of a viaduct over the busy Kalupur Flyover. The National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) and the Ministry of Railways announced the completion of this work on May 27, 2026. This development is a key part of the Bullet Train corridor in Gujarat.
What are the technical details of the Kalupur Flyover construction?
The project involved launching a 45-metre span using the Span-by-Span (SBS) method. The structure consists of 19 concrete segments and weighs approximately 1200 metric tonnes. The viaduct is built at a height of 19.5 metres from the ground to the rail level and runs parallel to the existing railway line.
How was the work managed to avoid traffic jams?
To ensure commuters faced minimal disruption, the work was carried out during night blocks between 12 AM and 6 AM. The Ahmedabad Traffic Department granted permissions for these blocks from May 22 to May 25, 2026. While the work zone was closed at night, normal traffic movement beneath the flyover was restored every day.
