Chulachomklao bridge, Railway bridge in Tha Kham, Thailand

The Chulachomklao Bridge extends across the Tapi River with a three-span through-truss structure, accommodating both railway tracks and pedestrian pathways.

The bridge, inaugurated in 1916, underwent substantial reconstruction between 1952 and 1953 following extensive damage sustained during World War II operations.

The bridge bears the name of King Chulalongkorn, a monarch who directed Thailand toward modernization through infrastructure developments in the early 20th century.

Located 1.3 kilometers from Surat Thani Railway Station, the bridge functions as a primary connection point for rail transportation in southern Thailand.

The structure combines railway functionality with pedestrian access, featuring an unused road section that remains from its earlier configuration.
