Have you ever seen a moving bridge in India? Well, this is set to become reality as the work on the new Pamban rail bridge (India's first vertical lift bridge) has started. The bridge connects 104-year-old British era Pamban bridge to Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu to India and the Indian Railways plans to replace this bridge with the country's first vertical-lift bridge. 
Earlier, Piyush Goyal had shared a video of how this bridge will look like and function.
"Ever seen a moving bridge? The Pamban Sea-Bridge that connects Rameshwaram with mainland India will soon have vertical lift span technology to allow the cross-navigation of vessels," the tweet read. The bridge acts like a normal road between the two ends but can be lifted to allow ships to pass under it. According to a report by PTI, a 'Bhoomi Pooja' (groundbreaking ceremony) was performed last week to mark the inauguration of the construction work on the bridge to be built by the Railway Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL), a public sector unit

The bridge is expected to help railways operate trains at higher speed, carry more weight and increase the volume of traffic between the mainland Pamban and Rameswaram.
The bridge is expected to have 101 piers with a vertical lift facility to open and close the middle portion. Since the bridge is located in world's second most corrosive region, associated high repair and maintenance costs remain a major concern. To address this issue, Railways has decided to adopt duplex stainless steel for fabrication of 4 girders of the new bridge.
