The maintenance work on Yashwantrao Chavan bridge near Poona Hospital, situated close to Lal Bahadur Shastri Road and Karve Road, has been ongoing for over a month now.
Most of the repair work has been completed, with only concrete work remaining.
It is anticipated that the bridge will be fully functional by the end of the week once this work is completed.
Following recent inspections confirming the safety of the bridge for vehicular traffic, and coordination with the city's traffic police, plans are underway to reopen it next week.
It's worth noting that Yashwantrao Chavan bridge was closed for strengthening and repairs in January 2024.
