Anji Khad Bridge

The Anji Khad Bridge is a cable-stayed railway viaduct that crosses a deep river valley. The structure connects two mountainous areas and is supported by large steel cables that extend from tall pylons.

The project initially planned an arch design but shifted in 2016 to a cable-stayed system due to challenging Himalayan geology. This change allowed for a more reliable solution suited to the demanding mountain terrain.

The bridge serves as a vital connection between communities that were previously isolated from each other. It enables residents to visit family and move goods across otherwise difficult terrain.

The site is located in a mountainous area, so expect changeable weather and wear sturdy shoes. The best time to visit is during drier months when the mountain passes are more accessible.

The bridge features special sensors that continuously monitor the health of the structure. It also incorporates reinforced safety elements necessary for operation in a sensitive mountain region.
