One side of Mutha Bridge on Mumbai-Bengaluru Bypass to Open by February
A bridge in Pune that goes over the Mutha river is almost ready!
It's part of a big road that helps cars going between Mumbai and Bengaluru to drive around the city.
This road used to be outside the city, but now the city has grown, and lots of people use this road to go to work.
Because so many people are using it, it gets very busy.
So, they built a new, bigger bridge.
One side of this new bridge will open soon, like in a few months.
This will help make the road less crowded for everyone.
The other side of the bridge will likely open later.
One side of the new Mutha bridge on the Mumbai-Bengaluru bypass in Pune will open by February.
The bridge connects the Sinhagad road area to Warje across the Mutha river.
The Mumbai-Bengaluru bypass, initially built to bypass Pune, is now within city limits.
Urban expansion and increased local use have led to heavy traffic on the bypass.
The new bridge aims to ease congestion on the busy bypass road.
