Kotri Bridge, Road and rail bridge in Kotri, Pakistan

The Kotri Bridge spans across the Indus River with six sections, connecting the cities of Kotri and Hyderabad through a combined railway and road structure.

Engineer Ernest Ifill Shadbolt directed the construction of the Indus Bridge Works for the Kotri-Rohri Railway in 1893, leading to its completion in 1900.

The bridge, known as Kotri Pul in Urdu, functions as a central crossing point for local residents, merchants, and travelers moving between major urban centers in Sindh.

The structure maintains a single railway track with roads on both sides, enabling one-way train traffic and two-way vehicle movement across the 594-meter span.

The bridge foundations extend between 15 to 18 meters below the water level, making it an engineering achievement for its construction period.
