Resumo

<p>For the bypass of the city of Kota (Rajasthan), NHAI has planned to make the NH-76 cross the Chambal River. Since this crossing was falling in the “National Chambal Gharial Wildlife Sanctuary”, it was decided to cross the 300 m wide river with a single span, and hence reduce crocodile wild life disturbance by avoiding any pier in the river bed. After tender, the turnkey contract was awarded to the construction JV Hyundai-Gammon, on the basis of the solution proposed by Systra.</p><p>The proposed solution to achieve this goal, was a cable-stayed bridge with a 350 m main span and axial suspension.</p>
