Mumbai-Pune Missing Link: Faster, Safer Travel, Banned for Explosive Vehicles

• The 'Missing Link' project aims to make Mumbai-Pune travel not just superfast but also 'zero risk'.
• Vehicles carrying explosives, gas tankers, or flammable materials will be banned on the new 19.80 km route.
• This ban will prevent major accidents like the recent gas leak that blocked the expressway for 32 hours.
• The Missing Link will reduce travel time by 30 minutes, shorten distance by 6 km, and avoid difficult Bhor Ghat turns.
• Costing 6,695 crore rupees, the project features Asia's widest tunnels and tallest bridges, nearing completion.
