Nehru Bridge

Nehru Bridge, Steel bridge on Sabarmati River in Ahmedabad, India.

The Nehru Bridge is a steel structure spanning about 950 meters across the Sabarmati River with wide footpaths on both sides for pedestrians. The bridge carries both vehicle and foot traffic, forming a key link between the older and newer parts of the city.

The foundation stone was laid in 1956 by Morarji Desai, then Chief Minister of Bombay State, and the bridge opened around 1962 under Jawaharlal Nehru. It was built to link the old city with Ahmedabad's expanding western districts, supplementing the earlier Ellis and Gandhi bridges. In 2021 hydraulic jacks raised the deck by 50 mm and 126 of 144 bearings were replaced.

The bridge is named after Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first prime minister, and was inaugurated by him around 1962. Near the bridge on the Sabarmati riverbank stands the Patang Revolving Restaurant, a rotating hotel-restaurant that is one of Ahmedabad's attractions.

There are no toll fees to cross, and wide pedestrian pathways make it safe and easy to navigate on foot or by vehicle. Early mornings or late afternoons are better times to visit when traffic is lighter.

The Patang Revolving Restaurant stands near the bridge on the Sabarmati riverbank, not on a platform beneath it. The bridge itself rests on 12 piers fitted with 12 rocker-cum-roller bearings each, a detail engineered so the deck can move during seismic activity.
