Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) Bridges Project

completed

RITES Ltd. played a key engineering and consultancy role in the USBRL project, involving alignment design, extensive surveys across the Himalayan terrain, design and proof-checking of 20 major bridges, and technical audits of 25 bridges including iconic structures like the Chenab Bridge and Anji Khad Bridge. The project featured engineering innovations such as India's first composite continuous railway bridges, advanced steel-concrete truss superstructures, long-span girders, and seismic-resilient designs. Structural Health Monitoring Systems were implemented for real-time performance tracking, enhancing safety and reliability. The project aims to deliver all-weather connectivity to the Kashmir Valley.
