Atal Pedestrian Bridge

Atal Pedestrian Bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Ahmedabad, India

The Atal Pedestrian Bridge is a footbridge in Ahmedabad district, India, built from glass and steel that extends 300 meters (984 feet) across the Sabarmati River. It links the eastern and western sections of the riverfront, allowing pedestrians to cross directly between both sides of the city.

The Sabarmati Riverfront Development Corporation approved a steel foot overbridge on 21 March 2018 at a cost of ₹74 crore. Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation named it after former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on his birth anniversary, 25 December 2021. Construction finished in June 2022 and Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated it on 27 August 2022.

The design of this footbridge draws from the tradition of kite flying that defines the city during the Uttarayan festival. The color patterns on the structure echo the bright hues that fill the sky during this local celebration.

The bridge is free to cross and sits between Sardar Bridge and Ellis Bridge. Two levels of walkways at each end link the upper and lower promenades of the Sabarmati riverfront, so you can step on from either bank. Fabric panels shade the deck from the harsh climate.

The bridge's cross-section is a rhombus, echoing the kites of Ahmedabad's international kite festival, and its truss depth varies along the span. Colourful fabric panels shade the deck from the harsh climate. It was designed by Mumbai-based STUP Consultants Ltd and built by P&R Infraprojects Ltd.
