It boasts capability of roadways and railways simultaneously. Its upper deck has a two lane railway line which connects Naini Junction railway station to Allahabad Junction railway station, while the lower deck has successfully been facilitating roadway services since 1927. The bridge opened in 1865 to provide a through line from Howrah (on the right bank of the Hoogly River facing Calcutta) to Agra (on the left bank of the Jamuna River facing Agra, a line length of 1017 miles(1630km) [3]. The location of the bridge between Naini and Allahabad had been decided as early as 1855. The actual work began in 1859 and the bridge was opened for public on August 15, 1865. By then, rail lines on both sides of the bridge to Delhi and Howrah was almost complete. The length of the bridge is 3,150 feet. It comprises 14 spans of 200 feet and two of 60 feet. The bridge has a railway line on the top and a roadway beneath. It was designed by engineer Alexander Meadows Rendel. The depth of foundation below is up to 42 feet and the height from low water level to underside of girder is 58.75 feet. The weight of the girder is 4,300 tons. It is estimated that about 2.5 million cubic feet of masonry and brick work was used in it.

The New Yamuna Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge located in Allahabad (Prayagraj).[2][3][4] The bridge was constructed by the end of 2004 with the aim of minimizing the traffic over the Old Naini Bridge.[5] The bridge runs north–south across the Yamuna river connecting the city of Prayagraj to its neighborhood of Naini. The construction was consulted by COWI A/S, a Danish consulting company. Main construction was done by Hyundai and was successfully completed in 2004.[5][6] New Yamuna Bridge Naini Bridge @ Allahabad.jpg Coordinates 27.1147°N 78.3673°E Carries 4 lanes, pedestrians and bicycles Locale Allahabad, India Official name The New Yamuna Bridge Characteristics Design Cable-stayed bridge Material Steel Total length 1,510 metres (4,954 ft) Width 250 Longest span 260 metres (853 ft) History Designer Hindustan Construction Company and Hyundai Engineering and Construction[1] Construction start 2000 Construction end 2004 Location Wikimedia | © OpenStreetMap Gallery

It is such a piece giving place. Very old and rigid bridge.

- This is Old Naini Bridge, connects the two ends of the city. Allahabad - Naini - This bridge have both road as well as railway track........ - Road is underneath the railway track.......... - Beautiful view from the bridge........... - Very narrow road this is disadvantage of the bridge and also messy, the bridge maintenance is poor and hygiene and cleanliness of the road is awful............ -

Made by British but still stronger than new Naini bridge.

Old Yamuna bridge Both road and railway bridge This bridge is so old that glimpse of bridge gives you 157 years of history. Build over River Yamuna to connect Allahabad with Nani city and also connects Delhi -Howrah route for Railways. The old Naini bridge is an engineering marvel constructed by the british. Bridge is still in use but heavy traffic is not allowed on this. With the construction of New Bridge most of the traffic uses new bridge. Impressive structure.

It is an old, steel bridge over river Yamuna. It has two decks. Upper deck has railways lines. Lower deck is for vehicular traffic. Access to the bridge is slightly difficult. It can get crowded. However, this bridge has its own charm. Overall, nice experience.

Nice👍

It's so beautiful... Single bridge where traffic trains runs at the same time. Upper part trains runs. In lower part traffic runs.. It's very excited to see especially for trains lover.. you will think more and more if you are train lover..

Here large size like bus truck not allowed it is so old and service are good

From old Nani bridge we get clear view of new nani bridge (hanging bridge) this bridge consisting of road and railway track upper portion is railway track or bridge and down side of bridge near this bridge you can explore some of the yamuna ghat (gau ghat) and you can also take the enjoyment of boat riding The evening and morning time is very peaceful and pleasant 😊😊😊

The Naini Bridge is now called the "Old Naini Bridge (Allahabad)" This area is highlight of Allahabad. You can come for hangout with friends or for praying according to your customs.

Very old bridge but too beautifull from top and from side view

very old bridge.

This is one of the oldest bridge that was built during the reign of Britishers. This bridge these days is used by motorists and cars only but the new bridge is really a structural marvel. Really a awesome sight to the eyes. We can view this bridge from the triveni sangam point too. It stands tall and looks awesome to do the eyes too. Got to visit this bridge while we were enroute to varanasi. Such a beauty.

Very good bridge

Before the bridge was built passengers travelling to the capital from Lahore and Calcutta were ferried across the river in boats.

Old yamuna bridge is really very amazing .this is a 150 years old bridge made by the Britishers. This bridge is the pride of Prayagraj . The one more fantastic thing is that this bridge is build without usig any Nuts and Bolts. This is a piller of Prayagraj.

Beautiful view after a very long time. I never missed this place to capture the same. I loved this. It feels like nature wants to say something beautiful. Please save nature. This place is close enough to enjoy your time with someone ❤️. Prayagraj is just amazing. I am posting my captures so that you can also enjoy the moment.

The Old Naini Bridge at Prayagraj, also known as the Old Yamuna or Old Jumna Bridge, is one of the oldest and longest bridges in India, connecting Howrah to New Delhi. [1] As a rail and road bridge, it is part of India’s vast railway network, an enduring legacy of the East India Company (EIC). The EIC proposed a great trunk line from Kolkata to Mirzapur as an extension of the same trunk to Delhi, with branches from Mirzapur to Jabalpur and other important points. Acting as a crucial middle link in the line directly connecting the River Hooghly to the River Yamuna, the old Yamuna Bridge was a part of the same plan. It was a measure of incalculable benefit from every point of view—social, political, and commercial to both India and Great Britain. Before the bridge was built, passengers coming from the west would have to be ferried across the river with their luggage; however, after the bridge was complete, the city began to experience increased rail traffic and eventually saw its borders being redefined. The EIC surveyed the area in 1855; work progressed in 1859 and a double-decked steel truss bridge was constructed by 1865. It has an arched bridge on the Prayagraj end near the fort, and a plate girder bridge on the Howrah end. It was planned by James Meadows Rendall who was a civil engineer for East India Railway, and at the time, it cost the sum of Rs 16,16,335 to make.

Double decker bridge of the town on yamuna river. The top is for trains and down side 2 lane road bridge. Now heavy vehicles are banned in this bridge.

Beautiful bridge and the blessing of Yamuna chills you

Hundreds plus year old bridge, whose mad by British government. Every year January to February KUMB MELA is begin to this place. Its foreigners attractions point.

Its a heritage government should focus on its repair.

Yo get a great panoramic view of Massive Yamuna River from this bridge. In monsoons the view is even better with heavy flow.

It is natural place seen beautiful in all time in Ganga River.

Very beautifully designed by the britishers that it is running till now.

Scenic beauty view

Visited via train Nice view

Good but but not best

Very bad and no proper maintenance. Very sad news is that many of times trains will stop right above the bridge due to its signal, so that waste water will fall on the people those who goes through the old bridge. Request Railway authority to relocate the railway signal so that people can travel safely through old bridge.

Amazing view. Lightening at bridge makes it so much beautiful.

Nyc bridge.awsome view from this bridge and you will love to watch the beauty of yamuna River
