PM Modi Inspects ‘Atal Setu’ Post Inauguration; Have A Look

PM Modi conducted a comprehensive inspection of the newly inaugurated Atal Bihari Vajpayee Sewari-Nhava Sheva Atal Bridge (Atal Setu) in Maharashtra. The bridge, which was unveiled earlier on January 12, is not only India’s longest bridge but also the country’s longest sea bridge. PM Modi himself has inaugurated this bridge. Designed to increase connectivity, Atal Setu is expected to significantly reduce travel time between Mumbai and Pune, Goa and South India. In the video footage, PM Modi has been captured while walking on the Atal Bridge. The bridge will provide faster connectivity to Mumbai International Airport and Navi Mumbai International Airport and will also reduce travel time from Mumbai to Pune, Goa and South India.

177,903 metric tons of steel used in the construction of MTHL

The 22 km long six-lane bridge connecting Sewri to Nhava-Sheva includes a 16.5 km long sea link and a 5.5 km long land bridge. 177,903 metric tons of steel and 504,253 metric tons of cement were used in the construction of MTHL. Currently, there are two access points to Navi Mumbai – one from the Airoli-Mulund connector and the other from the Vashi connector. If someone is going to Alibaug or Matheran or Lonavala, they go through these connectors with heavy traffic. Seen as a boon in a city known for traffic jams, MTHL will reduce travel time between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.
