Currently, the residents of these areas have to go a long way to reach these localities across the railway track. After inaugurating the bridge, MCD additional commissioner (engineering) Manish Gupta said the project was completed with the railways’ help at a cost of Rs 12 crore. “This RUB will shorten the commute between Sarai Kale Khan and Nizamuddin,” said Gupta.

Former Delhi Mayor Farhad Suri said though a number of objections were raised by various agencies, the bridge’s construction has been completed well in time.

The bridge comprises two boxes measuring 4 meter X 2.5 meter with a length of 50 meters each. The carriage-way is 3.5 metres wide on both sides and the approach road developed towards Nizamuddin side is 96 meters and 72 meters at Sarai Kale Khan side.
