Finally experienced the Missing Link/ Connecting Link on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. • Crossing the entire ghat section now takes just 8-10 minutes. Unreal considering it used to take hours sometimes. • The tunnel is massive, 4 lanes + service lanes inside. • The bridge section is genuinely an infrastructure... show more

#WATCH | Maval, Maharashtra: Shivaji Pawar, SP Pune Traffic says, "The connecting link on the Pune-Mumbai Expressway is currently completely closed due to a landslide. The old expressway route is shut due to waterlogging, and a landslide has occurred on the old highway as well. The entire route from Pune to Mumbai is currently blocked. The Mumbai-to-Pune lane remains operational with no issues, although traffic is moving slowly. We appeal to everyone to postpone their journey from Pune to Mumbai. The administration will provide full details once the road is cleared. You should only set out for Pune from Mumbai if it is an emergency; that lane is operational."

Pune-Mumbai Expressway Accident: Two Killed, Missing Link Closed for Hours After Major Crash A major accident involving two heavy vehicles occurred on the Pune-Mumbai Expressway early Monday morning, leaving two people dead on the spot and disrupting traffic for several hours. The crash took place around 5 a.m. near the Khalapur Food Mall, where the two heavy vehicles were severely damaged in the collision. An Ertiga car approaching from behind also rammed into one of the accident-hit vehicles, resulting in injuries to two occupants. Due to the severity of the accident, authorities temporarily shut down the Mumbai-bound Missing Link section of the expressway. Traffic heading towards Mumbai from Lonavala was diverted via the main expressway and the old Pune-Mumbai Highway, leading to significant congestion and disruption for nearly two hours. Officials later cleared the damaged vehicles from the roadway and reopened the Missing Link for traffic. Fortunately, the accident did not affect vehicles travelling from Mumbai towards Pune. Further details are awaited.

#Lonavala | June 30, 2026: A major accident was narrowly avoided inside the Mumbai-Pune Expressway Missing Link tunnel after a stone suddenly fell onto a moving car travelling from Mumbai towards Pune. The stone struck the windshield of an Ertiga, shattering the front glass. Fortunately, none of the occupants sustained any injuries. After receiving information about the incident, Khandala Highway Police rushed to the spot and inspected the area. Although the driver did not file an official complaint, the incident has once again raised concerns over safety inside the under-construction Missing Link tunnel on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. Authorities are expected to assess the tunnel's safety measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. @MSRDCOfficial

🚨 Mumbai–Pune Expressway’s Missing Link opens today on Maharashtra day. Travel time reduced by around 30 minutes, as the new alignment bypasses the accident-prone 19.8 km ghat section known for sharp curves and steep climbs. Built at a cost of ₹6,695 crore, the project features twin tunnels, massive viaducts, and a striking cable-stayed bridge—marking a major leap in safer, faster highway infrastructure. #ShindeInfraRevolution

#WATCH | Pune, Maharashtra: Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw says, "Our bullet train project is progressing rapidly. The first section of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train will begin operation next year, and its inauguration will take place. Work is progressing rapidly. Now the country has the capability to build bullet trains. So the Prime Minister has decided on a corridor. This decision will make the Mumbai-Pune corridor, a 170-km corridor, turn into just 48 minutes for both cities. This means that Mumbai and Pune will become twin cities, and this facility will become a very good economic corridor and an excellent cultural centre... the 500-km route from Pune to Hyderabad will be reduced to a journey of approximately 2 hours and 8 mins. This means that Pune, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Surat, Vapi, and Thane will all become a very good economic ecosystem."

A massive accident occurred early this morning on the 'Missing Link' bridge of the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. The multi-vehicle collision was triggered when a Fortuner SUV applied sudden brakes in the Borghat section, causing three trailing cars to smash into each other. While the vehicles suffered heavy damage and the incident caused chaos during peak commute hours, a major tragedy was fortunately averted with no casualties reported. #Missinglink #accident #latestnews #mumbaipuneexpressway

This video is from the Delhi–Mumbai Expressway. The expressway has four lanes, and truck drivers are driving in all four lanes. All the lanes are blocked by trucks. As a result, people traveling by car on the expressway are facing a lot of inconvenience, as they are unable to overtake from any lane. In reality, truck drivers are supposed to use a designated lane on the expressway, yet they are driving across all the lanes. We can build world-class expressways, but without civic sense, even the best infrastructure becomes ineffective.

This is music to the ears of someone who lived in Mumbai for 10 years and left disappointed because the infrastructure just wouldn’t keep up. Listen to the Chief Minister of Maharashtra on the massive infrastructure push around Mumbai: •India’s largest airport is getting ready, and the NAINA city around it will be three times bigger than Mumbai—set to become a business magnet. •You will be able to travel from Vadhawan Port to BKC in just 25 minutes. •Vadhawan Port is Maharashtra’s biggest infrastructure project. •It will transform not just Maharashtra’s economy but also that of Bharat. •JNPT Port has put Mumbai on the world map, accounting for 65% of India’s container traffic. •Vadhawan Port will be three times bigger than JNPT. •At Vadhawan Port, we will create a fourth Mumbai, with the city’s third airport coming up there. •Between 2009 and 2014, Maharashtra failed to develop robust infrastructure in Mumbai, leading to high living costs and prompting startups to relocate to cities like Bengaluru and Hyderabad. As a result, Mumbai missed out on the IT revolution. But now, with our infrastructure projects, that is changing. •Mumbai—not Bengaluru or Hyderabad—is India’s true startup capital. •30% of our startups are tech companies. •Navi Mumbai is India’s data center capital, commanding 60% of the country’s data center capacity. West Bengal has similar potential, but it cannot realize any of it as long as Mamata Banerjee remains Chief Minister. She must be voted out. The same goes for Tamil Nadu—Stalin is dragging it down.

This asphalt road from Kerala (the NH-66) absolutely mogs this concrete clad monstrosity called the Delhi Mumbai Expressway. Ironically, both are built by the NHAI. Stop scamming Indians with shitty PQC roads. If you really want to make it using concrete, use it as a substrata and resurface it with asphalt. The Vadodara Delhi section of the expressway is asphalt anyway. The high rainfall argument doesn't hold true for the Vadodara Mumbai section as the NH66 is located in a region with higher rainfall than Mumbai. The fact that asphalt offers smoother rides is an established fact.

₹7,000 Crore for PR Reels. 8 Lives Lost in 24 Hours. Politicians played "Singham" on the new Mumbai-Pune Missing Link just weeks ago. Yesterday, a few days of rain have exposed the truth: instant potholes, landslides, and crumbling infrastructure that claimed 8 innocent lives across Mankhurd, Kurla, and Aarey. Where are the self-proclaimed "Infra-men" now? Will a single official take accountability, or will they just blame the monsoon and the opposition again?
