Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), colloquially known as Atal Setu, India’s longest sea bridge spanning 21.8 km. This monumental infrastructure, dedicated to the late Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, was initiated with the laying of its foundation stone in December 2016.
Cost and Length: Atal Setu, constructed at a cost exceeding ₹17,840 crore, combines a 16.5 km stretch over the sea with approximately 5.5 km on solid ground, making it a 21.8-kilometer-long marvel.
Maximum Speed Limit: The Mumbai Trans Harbour Link sets a maximum speed limit of 100 kmph for four-wheelers, ensuring efficient and swift transportation.
In addition to this inauguration, the Prime Minister laid the foundation stone for projects worth ₹30,500 crore in Navi Mumbai, emphasizing the government’s commitment to robust infrastructure development.
