Nahur bridge: Phase 1 almost complete
Hindustan TimesMUMBAI: Phase 1 of the Nahur bridge, an important link in the ambitious Goregaon-Mulund Link Road, is almost complete. In Phase 2, the central section – the old bridge – will be replaced with a new one and all three structures merged into a single, 3+3-lane bridge, with footpaths on either side. “The GMLR will only add to the traffic using the bridge, increasing the demand for the under-construction Bhandup bridge,” said Mulund resident Bharat Soni, who frequently uses this bridge. The BMC should have had the foresight to first widen the GMLR from LBS Marg to Nahur station and supporting roads, he said, adding, “More cars using the bridge, means more traffic.” Phase 2 will involve dismantling the old Nahur bridge in the centre and rebuilding it, connecting it with the two new arms, to make it one consolidated bridge, far wider than before.
