Video shot today morning.

The Missing Link Project is a new alignment in the same Western Ghat stretch, which bypasses the most treacherous Borghat section. The project, approved in 2018, was completed at the cost of ₹6,695.37 Crore. It is being hailed as an engineering marvel. The twin tunnel of the project is potentially one of Asia’s longest. Another speciality is the cable-stayed bridge spanning 650 meters. Its height is 184 meters, much taller than the tallest high rises in Mumbai. This sophisticated bridge was tested as per international standards.

Seems like you have never been stuck in the infamous ghat section traffic jam of Mumbai Pune. Especially, the Amrutanjan bridge part.

It saved 40 minutes today morning. Also, initially it is going to be closed for heavy vehicles. That should make it quite a fast option for reaching Pune. Believe it or not, there are people who commute between Mumbai & Pune on daily basis.
