Rishikesh is all set to elevate its tourism landscape with the construction of Bajrang Setu, a state-of-the-art suspension bridge that promises to blend modern engineering with the city’s timeless spiritual charm. 

Once completed, the bridge will serve as both a vital connectivity link and a new landmark for visitors to the Yoga Capital of the World. Designed to ease pedestrian movement and reduce congestion on the iconic Lakshman Jhula and Ram Jhula, Bajrang Setu will also offer panoramic views of the Ganga and the surrounding Himalayan foothills. With its modern design and focus on sustainability, the bridge is expected to become an iconic addition to Rishikesh’s skyline — symbolising the city’s seamless balance between heritage and progress.
