The bridge is a link in one of the most difficult terrains on the 701-km long ‘Hindu HridaySamrat Balasaheb Thackeray Maharashtra Samruddhi Mahamarg’ Phase I, that was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on December 11, 2022.

The work on the remaining around 181-km long Nashik-Mumbai section is currently being implemented at a fast pace, and the bridge crash is likely to delay the competition of the Rs 55,000-crore mega-project.

The bridge accident has raised questions on the construction quality, processes and materials as well as proper site supervision especially since the HHSBTMSM will reduce the travel time between Mumbai-Nagpur from the current 16 hours to barely 8 hours.

However, the Samruddhi Expressway has already earned the sobriquet of a ‘killer highway’ with over 95 deaths and more than 300 accidents on the Nagpur-Nashik stretch currently functioning. ( – May 4, 2023).

An NGO, Council for Protection of Rights (CPR) Chairman barrister Vinod Tiwari has written to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis and others pointing out at the complete lack of ‘halts’ or other basic amenities and facilities that are leading to accident on the expressway.

He has demanded that the HHSBTMSM be closed for all traffic till all the facilities like drinking water, baths-toilets for men and women, food courts, petrol stations, mini shopping plazas, are provided as promised by the government and travel on it becomes absolutely safe and accident-free for people.
