This video contains the historic profile of Trimmu Barrage, which is a barrage on the River Chenab in the Jhang District of the Punjab province of Pakistan. It is situated downstream of the confluence of the River Jhelum and River Chenab. It is situated some 25 km from the city of Jhang near the city of Atharan Hazari where the River Jhelum flows into the River Chenab. It was one of the 7 link canals to be built under the Indus Water Plan of Pakistan. Pakistan created this plan after Indus Water Treaty.
Trimmu Barrage is used to control water flow into the River Chenab for irrigation and flood control. Trimmu Barrage is a vital flood control and irrigation structure located on the Chenab River near the city of Jhang, Pakistan. Constructed between 1938 and 1939 by British engineers, the barrage was designed primarily to safeguard Jhang and its surrounding areas from seasonal flooding, which had historically posed significant risks to lives and livelihoods. The project was spearheaded by Chief Engineer James Douglas Hardy Bedford.
The architectural design of Trimmu Barrage integrates an arched grid-iron bridge supported by a network of protective bands, showcasing engineering techniques of the early 20th century. Over time, the barrage has been the subject of extensive modernization efforts aimed at bolstering its operational efficiency and structural resilience. Key upgrades have included the construction of new gates, maintenance of the original structures, and the reconstruction of bridges to improve functionality and durability.
