The Amazing Jadukata Bridge, the longest span cantilever bridge in India

(central span of 140 m, stretches so naturally from one shore to the other that it seems to grow out of the rich vegetation itself Leaving Europe to move further east, we come to the Indian Jadukata Bridge in Ranikor in the West Khasi Hills District of Meghalaya, 130 km from its capital, Shillong. This bridge over the Jadukata river is close to the Indo-Bangladesh border and therefore a vital link on an important road in this border state. Even cost wise, compared to the other bridges featured here, it is a lightweight at €1.5 million)
