Gamechanger for Maharashtra: ‘Missing link’ on Mumbai-Pune Expressway nears completion, India’s longest cable-stayed bridge to open on… The Mumbai-Pune Expressway, around 95 km long, is India’s first access-controlled highway. With the addition of the missing link, it will become smoother, safer and more efficient, marking a major upgrade to one of the country’s busiest road corridors.
The Rs 6,700-crore project, developed by the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), includes two tunnels, high viaducts and a cable-stayed bridge over Tiger Valley. The missing link will reduce the travel distance between Mumbai and Pune by approximately 6 km and shorten the journey time by 20 to 30 minutes, said officials.
The 650-metre viaduct will feature what officials described as India's tallest road cable-stayed bridge, with pylons rising to 182 metres, taller than those on the Bandra-Worli Sea Link.
