The Musakhri Bridge in Indore will have a single lane ready for traffic by October, with both lanes expected to be completed by the start of the new year.
Indore's Musakhri Bridge, whose construction has been progressing slower than planned, is set to see its first traffic lane opened by October. The bridge, originally slated for full completion in March, has faced delays that continue to inconvenience motorists.
Local authorities have now announced that the first lane will be operational by the end of October, providing limited relief to commuters who have been navigating detours and congestion. The remaining lane is projected to be finished by the beginning of the new year, completing the two‑lane structure.
The staggered opening is intended to ease traffic pressure while work on the second lane proceeds. Officials have asked road users to exercise patience as the final stages of construction are carried out.
The bridge is a key link in Indore's road network, and its full functionality is expected to improve connectivity across the city once both lanes are in service.
