| Abstract: |
This paper provides a comprehensive evaluation of Baghajatin ROB, located on the trunk route of the EM bypass of Kolkata Metropolitan, India. The bridge has been subjected to increased traffic volume, aggressive weathering conditions, and lack of proper maintenance over the years, resulting in its gradual deterioration. This paper aims to highlight the existing state of the ROB and discusses the methodology adopted to repair and retrofit. It includes the current progress of the repair and retrofitting at the site and the challenges involved in construction. This study provides value to engineers, policymakers, and infrastructure stakeholders seeking to develop effective strategies for maintaining and upgrading crucial infrastructure. |
