The 14th span of the much-hyped Padma Bridge is scheduled to be installed on Saturday.
The '3-C' span will be set up on the 15-16 pillars of the bridge, said an engineer of Padma Bridge Project.
Earlier, the 150 meter long span weighing 3,140 tons was taken near the pillar by a floating yard 'Tian-E' from Mawa Kumarbhog Construction Yard on Thursday.
But the span couldn't be installed due to inclement weather, reports UNB.
Now the span is being anchored near the pillar no 15. A dredging work is going on in the area.
Earlier, on May 25, the 13th span of the bridge was installed on the 14 ad 15 no pillars.
The Padma Multipurpose Bridge started becoming visible with the installation of 150-metre span on pillars 37 and 38 on October 30, 2017.
Work on the country's largest bridge started in December 2015.
The 6.15-kilometre bridge will have a total of 41 spans, each 150 metres long.
According to the engineers concerned, a total of 41 spans will be installed on 42 concrete pillars.
