The longest span within the history of the bridge was within the last two months, October and November. There are 6 spans during a record 4 per month. Where there have been only two spans at the Mawa end, there’s now a 1.5-kilometer bridge visible across the whole 10 spans. The bridge has merged with the bank, now the 2 ends also will merge if these two spans are installed.
According to the plan, the new span is going to be placed on the 11th and 12th pillars next to the span that last sat on November 26. However, it had been taken to the pillar on Thursday, each day before the span, so as to urge some technical work done. a military patrol ship ensured the security of the span-carrying crane within the middle of the river until it had been lifted over the pillar on Friday.
Incidentally, the development of the Padma Bridge started in December 2014. The Padma Bridge became visible on September 30, 2016, with the installation of the primary span on poles 37 and 38. Then the spans are placed one by one.
The main shape of this multipurpose bridge is going to be two stories. The structure of the bridge is being constructed with concrete and steel. it’s been informed that the Padma Bridge is going to be opened in 2021 after its completion.
A total of 6.15 km long Padma bridge is being constructed by placing 41 spans of 150 m length on 42 pillars. about a couple of pillars are already visible. China Major Bridge Engineering Company (MBEC), a Chinese contractor, is functioning on most bridges, and Sino Hydro Corporation, another company within the country, is functioning on river management. Abdul Momen Limited of Bangladesh has constructed two connecting roads and infrastructure.
