bridge project
The proposed 880 m-long bridge connecting the island of Chorao (Tiswadi) to Salvador do Mundo (Bardez) has recently been awarded to M Venkat Rao Infra Projects at a cost of Rs.147.31 crore. The specialized steel arch bridge has been approved by the Union Transport ministry and will be funded through central funds. Though the bridge is expected to take three years to be completed, construction work is expected to start shortly after the entire land stretch is acquired by the state government. The two-lane bridge will have a 476 m-long approach road built on Salvador do Mundo and a 314 m-long approach road on Chorao, close to the Salim Ali bird sanctuary.
