The Reay Road Bridge runs through the heritage Reay Road station connecting the Byculla East area passing over the harbour line to connect with the Mahul Road and the Eastern Freeway
There are six pairs of cables on the cable-stayed span
The bridge is built similar to the design of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link
To create space for the new bridge, one railway ticket counter, 130 hutments and 15 sheds had to be relocated with the help of BMC, the Mumbai Port Trust and the Central Railway
The city’s first cable-stayed Road Over Bridge is completed and has become one of the fastest ones constructed over the rail lines
