    Construction started around 1971 and the bridge officially opened in 1975. It was a joint effort between the state government and private contractors, using a steel truss design that could handle the heavy traffic now on the NH 7 corridor. If you’re planning to visit, the Clarion Hotel Dehradun is a convenient base while you stroll across the span and enjoy the river views.
