This project constructed a new four-lane cable-stayed bridge over the River Yamuna in Allahabad, India to replace an old narrow two-lane bridge. The 1,640 meter long Naini Bridge included approach roads for a total length of 3,806 meters. It was funded through an Official Development Assistance loan from JBIC. The bridge construction faced delays but was completed for less than the original budget. Operation and maintenance of the bridge includes ongoing monitoring of conditions.

Planning:
“what” is going to be done, “how”, “where”, by
“whom”, and “when” for effective monitoring and
control of complex projects

Scheduling:
“what” will be done, and “who” will be working

11. The Work Break Down Structure (WBS)
An organizational tool for complex projects
A first step in creating a schedule
Useful for defining the Scope of Work
After decided how to do the work
Consists of:
Goal statement for project
Subdividing goal into smaller & smaller portions

13. Background
Allahabad, about 600 km southeast of Delhi in Uttar
Pradesh (UP) State, is a major industrial city along National
Highway 2.
The city is divided into the four districts of Allahabad, Naini,
Jhusi and Phaphamau.
The adjacent Naini District across the River Yamuna is the
industrial center where communication, automobile,
fertilizer, textile and related industry companies are located.
The only traffic route connecting these two districts was the
existing bridge over the River Yamuna (Yamuna Bridge).

14. The existing bridge (Yamuna Bridge) is a combined
highway-railway bridge constructed at the end of the 19th
century, and its narrow two lanes were straining to cope
with the increasing size and weight of the vehicles.
Out of concern over the safety of the decaying bridge,
construction of a new substitute bridge was urgently
needed.

15. Objective
Construct a four-lane bridge
Replace the existing old two-lane bridge
Alleviating chronic traffic congestion

Total Bridge Length: 1640 m
Width of superstructure 26 m
Main spans: 185 m – 260 m – 185 m

18. Output
The main scope of this
project include the
construction of a four-lane
cable-stayed bridge (Naini
Bridge; length, 1,640 m)
and approach roads (total
length: 3,806 m) was
implemented almost entirely
as planned.

19. In addition, based on recommendations suggested
in JBIC’s study the project scope was expanded
to include installation of toll booths and
monitoring equipment such as the weigh-in
motion system and the wind and structural health
monitoring system (WASHMS).

20. Projectperiod
The project period was scheduled from January 1994 to July
2004 (ten years and seven months), which is four years and
four months longer than the planned period from January
1994 to March 2000 (six years three months) or 169% of the
planned period.
The project cost was 8,807 million yen 3,097 million yen less
than the planned 11,904 million yen or 74% of the planned
project cost. In terms of rupee, the actual cost was 3,145
million rupees which is almost equal to the planned 3,217
rupees.

21. InvolvementofMaurer Söhne
Maurer Soehne manufactured 4 Swivel Joist Expansion
Joints with a length of 24,40 m each. This cross-
sectional width of the superstructure considers 4
highway traffic lanes and two lateral 3m - tracks for
“other” traffic and pedestrians.
Due to transport reasons, the joints were delivered in two
pieces to be connected on job site. The joints can
accommodate movements of 400 mm (at both
abutments) and 360 mm and 600 mm
respectively at the pylons.

22. Operationandmaintenance status
On the Naini Bridge, weather observation devices,
which check conditions and measure the weight
and gradient of pylons, are set at seven positions
and are monitored 24 hours from the observation
equipment control room in the toll booth control
building.
