An overbridge over Sabarmati


The Sabarmati riverfront is all set to get a swanky foot overbridge across the river that will connect lower and upper promenades on the east and west banks. The steel bridge's design has received the nod from the Sabarmati Riverfront Development Corporation Limited.

The overbridge, which will cost roughly Rs.70 crore, will draw inspiration from the theme of kites and the celebration of Uttrayan. Even the colours chosen reflect the hues of kites. The overbridge will be a combination of steel and glass and will be protected on all sides.

Apart from the overbridge, the SRFDCL is also creating a biodiversity and meditation park. The AMC had announced recently that a medicinal plants park, a butterfly park, and a meditation park would be established.
