WATCH | 189-year-old British-era Amrutanjan bridge on Mumbai-Pune Expressway demolished
MUMBAI: The British-era Amrutanjan Bridge near Lonavala on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway was demolished on Sunday using controlled blasting, a senior official said.
The Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) demolished the 190-year-old bridge to make the traffic between Mumbai and Pune smoother, the official said.
The bridge, which was built by the British in 1830, was causing traffic snarls and also caused several accidents on the route.
