Please take us through the iconic project’s timeline since inception.
The timely completion of such a mega project has been achieved by L&T despite challenges like adverse climatic conditions and the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted our global supply chain and availability of workforce. Since inception, the project team kept challenging itself and achieved significant milestones. Starting with the pile foundation works in 2018, the team began the first superstructure concrete span erection works in February 2020.

Tell us about orthotropic steel deck (OSD) technology.
A first-of-its-kind engineering feat in India, OSD span erection works began in January 2022 and about 38 OSD spans (85 to 180 m) were erected within a challenging 15 months, including three non-working months in the monsoon.
