The Sarangpur Bridge, which connects Rakhial Road to the Kalupur Railway Station area and Sarangpur Darwaja, will be closed for 1.5 years starting from January 2, 2026, due to the construction of a new bridge.
This closure comes as part of the renovation of the city’s main railway junction, Kalupur Station, after AMC Councillor Iqbal Sheikh reported extensive damage to the bridge’s infrastructure, including iron grilles, caused by a rat infestation.
