The New Pamban Bridge | India's First Vertical Lift Railway Sea Bridge | Rameswaram #pambanbridge

The New Pamban Bridge, inaugurated in early 2025, is India's first vertical-lift railway sea bridge, connecting mainland India to Rameswaram Island. Situated in the Palk Strait, this 2.07 km, dual-track bridge replaces the century-old 1914 bridge, offering enhanced safety, higher speeds (up to 98 km/h), and advanced technology to withstand harsh marine environments.
