In an important development, two sections of the 21-km-long under-construction Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL)—India`s longest sea bridge—will be joined soon.

A Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) official said, “MMRDA has achieved another milestone on the MTHL project. The work of the two launching girders of erecting spans in the marine bridge has been done. Joining two packages of MTHL at a distance of approximately 10.380 km into the sea from Mumbai will be completed soon.”
