37,000 Indian Railway Bridges Are More Than 100-Yr-Old, Restoration Is Immediately Needed

The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Railways revealed that nearly one of the four railway bridges in the country is either a century old or older which needs an upgrade citing the pressure on Indian railways.

The increase in the number of pressures and plus the new heavier and faster trains put pressure on these old structures and unless the bridges are upgraded, the passengers are at risk. Out of a total of 1, 47, 523 bridges across India, a total of 37,689 are either a century old or even older. News18 did the story.
