As informed by the Government today, it has been notified that more than 37,000 railway bridges are more than 100 years old and almost 32% of them are available in the Northern Zone. The minister told that the checking of these bridges is done twice and even more depending on their condition. However, the bridge's age does not have any relation to the bridge's lifetime period.
