The NHSRC is committed to maintaining the highest standards of construction and safety, ensuring that the bullet train corridor will be a world-class infrastructure project.

The high-speed rail network will connect key cities and tourist destinations, making travel more convenient and accessible. The project is a testament to the government's commitment to modernizing India's transportation infrastructure and positioning the country as a global leader in high-speed rail technology.
In addition to the river bridges, the project involves the construction of several other critical infrastructure components, including stations, tunnels, and viaducts. The NHSRC is working diligently to ensure that all aspects of the project are completed on time and within budget.
The completion of the 12 river bridges is a significant achievement and a clear indication of the progress being made on the bullet train corridor.
