Navi Mumbai: A decade ago, the incomplete structure of this footbridge led the public works department to decide its dismantling, a move triggered by frequent accidents on the road.
Key Points:
- Initiation of footbridge construction
- Critical interruption in road navigation between Seawoods and Panvel
- Assurance for pedestrians post the bridge’s completion
In the vicinity of Sanpada along the Seawoods-Panvel Highway, the absence of the footbridge posed significant risks for pedestrians. Consequently, the decision to build this footbridge was taken a decade ago. However, after partially erecting the structure, the project was abandoned, failing to benefit pedestrians. As a result, the demand for the bridge’s completion persisted for years. Finally, the opportune moment for the bridge’s inauguration has arrived, and the ground-breaking ceremony was promptly conducted.
A decade ago, due to its incomplete state causing severe accidents, the public works department had decided to dismantle this footbridge. The anticipation for the bridge’s construction had persisted. Social activist Nilesh Kachare has been advocating for the bridge’s construction for the past four to five years, submitting numerous complaints, letters, and emails to the Chief Minister’s office and various related departments. Consequently, a directive for the footbridge’s construction was issued two months ago. However, no substantial progress followed. Therefore, Kachare made another plea to the Chief Minister’s office on December 4, urging the initiation of work. Consequently, the ground-breaking ceremony for this project took place on Wednesday. The work is expected to conclude within eight months. The ceremony saw the presence of Executive Engineer Kalyani Gupta from the public works department, social activist Nilesh Kachare, former councilor Somanath Vaskar, and other dignitaries.
At this location, vehicles from Vashi and Turbhe pass at high speeds, compelling pedestrians to cross the road, risking their lives due to the absence of the bridge. Hence, constructing this bridge was of paramount importance. Assurance will be provided to pedestrians once the bridge construction is complete.
