The '''Anji Khad bridge''' is an under construction [[cable-stayed bridge]] connecting [[Katra, Jammu and Kashmir|Katra]] and [[Reasi]] Section of [[Jammu–Baramulla line]]. Earlier, an [[arch bridge]] similar to the [[Chenab Bridge]] was proposed.

==History==
The Anji Khad bridge was initially proposed to be an arch bridge. It was designed as a long steel arches span bridge. Its main arch span was {{cvt|265|m}} and the deck height is {{cvt|189|m}}. The {{convert|473|meter|ft|adj=mid|-long}} bridge lies southeast of the Chenab Bridge, near Reasi, along which the alignment of the new railway line crosses the deep gorges of Anji Khad. Quality aspects, construction standards, indigenous materials and the painting scheme were proposed to be similar to the Chenab Bridge. Later, a committee headed by a former railway board chairman has recommended that the location is not suitable for an arch bridge.

In October 2016, [[Indian Railways]] decided to build a cable-stayed bridge at Anji Khad. The plan to build an arch bridge similar to the Chenab bridge was abandoned due to the vulnerability of the structure primarily due to concerns over geological stability of the region.<ref name="greaterkashmir.com">{{Cite web|url=http://www.greaterkashmir.com/news/jammu/india-s-first-mega-cable-stayed-railway-bridge-to-link-katra-and-banihal/230661.html|title=India's first mega cable-stayed railway bridge to link Katra and Banihal | Greater Kashmir}}</ref>
The proposed bridge will connect tunnel T2 on Katra side and tunnel T3 on Reasi side. The [[Indian rupee|₹]]458 [[crore]] project consists of 290 metres span at a height of 196 metres.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/kashmir-link-project-to-have-first-cable-stayed-rail-bridge-3076227/|title=Kashmir link project to have first cable-stayed rail bridge|date=11 October 2016}}</ref>

==Design==
The basic design proposed by a foreign firm is used. The head of the construction of [[Northern Railway zone|Northern Railways]] has informed that the detailed design is being worked out.

==Status updates==
* Jan 2017: [[Hindustan Construction Company|HCC]] to construct cable-stayed Anji Khad Bridge. The work will complete in 36 months.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/companies/hcc-bags-rs-369-cr-projectircon-internationalj-k-941831.html|title=HCC Bags Rs 369-cr Project From IRCON International In J-K|website=Moneycontrol}}</ref>
