  • A bridge that is over an old dried passage of a small river. this bridge connects main railway line from Karachi to Hyderabad, which is the only railway route out of Karachi. due to flooding in 2005, this bridge collapsed and the railroute was blocked for >48hours. an alternate bridge was constructed on the east side of the old bridge. but as the flooding became vigorous, the new bridge almost dismantled after 2-3 months. By timely repair work any further damage was avoided. now the old bridge stands at its place with the temporary bridge rubble lying worthlessly at its place.
