Bridges
Reliance Infrastructure and Hyundai Engineering, formed a joint venture to build the Worli-Haji Ali part of the Western Freeway. The consortium was also to toll the Bandra Worli Sea Link for 40 years. In early 2012, the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai proposed constructing a 35km coastal road between Nariman Point and Kandivali. Reliance subsequently protested against this project as it claimed it would incur losses. Subsequently, the Government of Maharashtra appointed a committee to look into the matter. Later, it was reported that the MSRDC was likely to scrap the deal with Reliance due to the latter not having started construction two years after signing the agreement. Afterwards, it was announced that the deal was scrapped as the mediation report stated that it was impossible to build.

Famous quotes containing the word bridges:
“When Death to either shall come—
I pray it be first to me.”
—Robert Bridges (1844–1930)
“As night is withdrawn
From these sweet-springing meads and bursting boughs of May,
Dream, while the innumerable choir of day
Welcome the dawn.”
—Robert Bridges (1844–1930)
“If the Revolution has the right to destroy bridges and art monuments whenever necessary, it will stop still less from laying its hand on any tendency in art which, no matter how great its achievement in form, threatens to disintegrate the revolutionary environment or to arouse the internal forces of the Revolution, that is, the proletariat, the peasantry and the intelligentsia, to a hostile opposition to one another. Our standard is, clearly, political, imperative and intolerant.”
—Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)
