How To Reach Kulai River Bridge

Ambassa, Tripura, India:
A Vital Structural and Historical Link: The Kulai River Bridge near Ambassa is a crucial piece of infrastructure, historically and currently serving as a vital link on the road network connecting Ambassa to the Kamalpur subdivision and beyond. The significance of this particular location stems from a major flood event almost three decades ago that washed away the original wooden structure. For a long time, the crossing was managed by a precarious Bailey bridge—a temporary, pre-fabricated truss bridge—which became a symbol of local resilience and the need for permanent development. The current permanent bridge, often a concrete and steel structure, represents the modern advancement and improved connectivity of the Dhalai District, replacing the risky and time-consuming temporary crossing. Its strategic location over the Kulai River (a tributary of the Dhalai) ensures the smooth flow of goods and people, making it an economic artery for the region's agricultural products, such as pineapple and rice, to reach larger markets. The bridge is an excellent vantage point to observe the ecology of the Kulai River, which is smaller and more intimate than the larger Dhalai, yet equally important for local communities. The bridge itself is an unofficial monument to the perseverance of the local government and communities in overcoming natural calamities to build permanent, safe infrastructure. It is a quiet spot, often overlooked by tourists, but its story is central to the development narrative of modern Ambassa.

How to Reach

By Air (Nearest Airport) The nearest airport is Maharaja Bir Bikram Airport (IXA) in Agartala (approx. 85 KMS away). From the airport, a taxi or private car will take approximately 2. 5 to 3 hours to reach the bridge via NH 8. The bridge is a landmark just before you formally enter the main Ambassa town center from the Agartala side. By Train (Nearest Station) Ambassa Railway Station (ABSA) is the nearest railhead (approx. 5-6 KMS from the bridge). From the station, the easiest way to reach the bridge is by a local reserved auto-rickshaw (or a shared 'line car' taxi) heading towards the Kamalpur side, which will take about 15-20 minutes. By Road (Highway Landmark) The bridge is directly located on the busy NH 8 (Ambassa-Kamalpur Road). Public buses and numerous shared taxis (often Sumo/Bolero) regularly ply this route from Agartala and Kamalpur to Ambassa. Any local bus heading from Ambassa towards Kamalpur will cross the bridge; just ask the conductor for the Kulai Pul (Kulai Bridge) stop. By Local Transport (Easy Access) Given its close proximity to Ambassa town (4 KMS), a local auto-rickshaw is the most convenient way to reach the bridge. They are cheap and readily available at the Ambassa town center or the railway station and can be hired for a short round trip, costing between Rs.50-Rs.100. The journey is short and direct.
