Old Yamuna Bridge, Steel railway bridge in Central Delhi, India

The Old Yamuna Bridge extends 804 meters across the Yamuna River with a double-deck structure featuring railway tracks above and vehicle lanes below.

The East India Railway completed this engineering project in 1866 at a cost of £1,616,335, establishing the final railway connection between Kolkata and Delhi.

Local bridge guards maintained detailed records of water levels during monsoon seasons, monitoring the structure day and night to ensure safe passage.

The bridge serves as a crucial transportation link between Central Delhi's commercial districts and the residential areas of East Delhi for daily commuters.

The structure contains 12 spans of 61 meters each, combining both railway and road traffic capabilities within its metal framework.
