Kota Chambal Bridge

Kota Chambal Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Kota, India

Kota Chambal Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge crossing the Chambal River in Rajasthan with two prominent towers rising above the water. The structure connects Kota and its surroundings as part of a major road corridor.

Construction began in late 2006, when the foundation stone was laid in November as part of the East-West Corridor under the National Highways Development Programme, with work formally starting in 2007. On 24 December 2009 a partially built span collapsed, killing 48 workers and engineers and halting work until early 2014. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the bridge on 29 August 2017.

The bridge carries the name of Kota and the Chambal, the river it crosses on the city's outskirts. It forms part of the Kota Bypass on the East-West Corridor, so traffic between the two sides of the gorge now passes over the deck rather than through the city. Its 7.5-metre noise barriers, about 70% coverage in each 700-metre span, were fitted on both sides to limit disturbance to wildlife in the river below.

The bridge connects different parts of the city and enables traffic in multiple directions through its wide roadway. Visitors can view the structure from the riverbank or enjoy the view of the Chambal while crossing.

On 24 December 2009, the under-construction west span P4-P3, pylon P4, pier P4 and cantilever up to segment 10 collapsed into the Chambal without warning at about 5.30 pm, killing 48 workers and engineers and injuring several more. Work only resumed in early 2014 after NHAI-mediated dispute resolution.
