The Okhla barrage (Okhla Weir and Okhla bridge)[2] is a 791 meters[1] or roughly 800-yard long weir across Yamuna River opened in 1874. It also serves as the location of Okhla Bird Sanctuary today. It is situated 10 km to the south of New Delhi and downstream of Nizamuddin bridge at Okhla, where Agra canal originates from it.[3] The top of barrage also serves as the Delhi-Noida carriageway of Kalindi Kunj-Mithapur road.[4] Nearby later-era New Okhla Barrage is 554 meters long.[1]
It is under the management of the government of Uttar Pradesh.[5]
