The casting for the first ‘arch girder’ of Agra Metro Project started at the casting yard on Saturday.
The Agra Metro Project has recently completed one year since its inauguration and the construction work is on.
The Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) in a press statement said that an arch girder, as the name suggests, is an arch-shaped and is used for track crossover for the metro train, where u-girders are not used.
One arch girder weighs around 165 tons and has a span of 30 metres, said the press release.
