Tista Railway Bridge

Tista Railway Bridge, Railway bridge in Rangpur Division, Bangladesh.

The Tista Railway Bridge is a steel girder railway bridge over the Teesta River, its northern end in Lalmonirhat Sadar upazila and its southern end in Kaunia upazila of Rangpur District. Built in 1899–1900, it now carries only trains, including the Kurigram Express and Lalmoni Express.

The bridge was built in 1899–1900 over the Teesta River at Mahiganj. During the 1971 Liberation War it was damaged and repaired in 1972 with spans and girders taken from another bridge. Road traffic opened on 4 March 1978 and continued until 2012, when the adjacent Teesta road bridge opened and the crossing reverted to rail only.

The bridge links communities across the Teesta River and enables trade and daily movement between three districts. For local people, it represents an important passage that brings regions together.

The bridge can be accessed via the Burimari-Parbatipur railway line in northern Bangladesh. Construction activity nearby means the area may look different depending on current development phases.

This structure ranks among Bangladesh's larger railway bridges and has served two different purposes since its creation. Both train traffic and vehicle crossings occur on the same span.
