The Bandra Worli Sea Link.

From a mumbaikar's point of view--(in the sequence he told us)
Its almost 6.7 km long stretch and takes 6-7 mins to cover.
It is a suspension bridge designed by an architect.
It was planned for Bandra-Worli-HajiAli-Nariman Point, but right now.. it is only functional for the Bandra worli route.
The initial vision for this link came in the 1960 but the actual work started around 10 years back.
There were agitations by the fishermen against this link.
The planning was done for 8 lanes.. only 4 are functional as of now.
The one way cost is Rs. 50 and the two way cost is Rs. 75.
