Bajrang Setu, a 132-meter glass suspension bridge, is set to become a iconic landmark in Rishikesh, blending modern engineering with sacred symbolism. The bridge features transparent walkways, modern engineering, and entrances inspired by the sacred Kedarnath Temple. It is India's first cable suspension bridge with glass footpaths and only the second such bridge in all of Asia.
About design and architecture
The pedestrian walkways on either side of the bridge are made of 65-66 mm thick transparent glass, providing a spectacular view of the river below. The central deck is reserved for two-wheelers and small four-wheeled vehicles, enhancing local connectivity. The bridge's towers are designed to resemble the sanctum of Kedarnath Temple, blending sacred symbolism with modern engineering. O
