Work on Second Bridge on Mangalore Airport Road Reaches Final Stage: To Be Completed Soon
The second bridge across the Phalguni (Gurupura) on Airport Road in Mangalore which is a part of the four-lane road till the international airport entrance, has reached its final stages of construction. The girders are being placed on pillars and deck concreting has been taken up.
The ₹16-crore bridge project began about a year ago with a view to de-congesting Airport Road between Marakada and Airport Entrance. Airport Road is a four-lane stretch between KPT Junction and Marakada. Approach roads for the bridge are being constructed and they will be completed only after the monsoon. Meanwhile, work on the four-lane road from the bridges to Airport Entrance too is progressing well. The completion of the four-lane work will coincide with the commissioning of the second bridge.
