Mumbai: A significant milestone in the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Project was achieved on October 1, 2024, with the completion of a 210-meter-long PSC (Prestressed Concrete) bridge over National Highway 48 (NH-48) at Sisodra village in Navsari district, Gujarat. This bridge is a crucial part of the bullet train corridor, which will revolutionize high-speed rail travel between Mumbai and Ahmedabad.
