NHAI to Undertake Immediate Structural Repairs of Vaitarna Major Bridge on NH-48

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) announced the immediate structural repair of the Vaitarna Major Bridge (middle bridge) on the Mumbai–Ahmedabad Highway (NH-48) in Maharashtra, which was constructed in 1965. Identified during a routine bridge inspection on August 27, 2026, the repair work is undertaken as a precautionary measure for road-user safety and is expected to take approximately one month. Consequently, the temporary closure of the bridge has been implemented to manage traffic movement during the repair period.
