Old route is 57 km, new is 22km. Maths for up-down is: old route -57*2 = 114 Kms, new route = 22* 2 = 44, difference is 70 Km less for new route. My vehicle gives mileage of 10km per litre, so it basically saves 7 litres of diesel for me, and saves 7*94 = Rs 658 for me. Out of which i give Rs 375 as toll, which gives net savings of Rs 283 per trip. Also, it saves 3hours-40 mins which is 2 hours 20 mins
I truly appreciate the engineering marvel of the infrastructure. Kudos to the engineers! While it only takes 15 minutes to cross the bridge and reach Navi Mumbai, the real challenge for us Mumbaikars is how long it will take to reach the actual bridge during peak hours. Haha, the joys of city life!

Big Salute to all the engineers, labourers and each person who have toiled hard to complete this amazing project - 'Atal Setu'. Kudos to you, Drive safe and happily.
What an Era to be an Indian. Decades down the line, we can be proud to have witnessed the rise of Bharat. We, the Citizens should be proud of this generation coz we are participants and contributors of the new Bharat. Jai hind !
Watching this video within 1 hour of its release. I really loved how the Autocar India team covered all the nitty-gritty right from the inception to why the cables are not used considering the evergreen Bandra Worli sealink to how the Flamingos' migratory flow is taken care of and the barriers installed for sound and sight insulation to the Elephanta caves view from the bridge... As always, the camera, drone, editing team makes the info more interesting to captivate to the screens. I also personally love to watch the reviews with Hormazd Sorabjee's point of view... Marvelous!😊
I have been on the sea link of Mumbai and still remember the thrill of driving on it. Mumbai Trans Harbour Link takes it to the next level. Beautiful 🤩 oh Audi RS e-tron G..
Please make a dedicated video on the drive via Atal Setu vs the traditional drive from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai via the older route. Should be quite entertaining :)
I was living in Mumbai in 1985. At that time , this highway was conceived and was the talk of the town. Later we came to know that because of Naval Dockyard, the project has been shelved. Though I have left Mumbai a long ago, but it is heartening to know that the project has come to life and has been completed. Long Live India. Jai Bharat.
Great to see you again Hormadz! after years, nearly 20! good good! Reading your write-ups is still a pleasure! I recall bought my Fiat Uno - based your ideas.
Happy that those home grown engineers and other SMEs who didn’t leave Bharath could work on such a project. Also, it must have been a great opportunity and experience for all those who got involved in constructing this bridge. Everybody must have enhanced their skills too.
I still can't believe what I saw. Just awesome, wish it had came a bit earlier though. I hope it connects Pune expressway soon. Maruti Esteem at VRDE or Audi RS E Tron GT on this bridge this Mr Hormarzd always gets to experience it first hand.
This is awesome accomplishment. Authorities had good vision and worked hard completing this project. But I feel vision of fulfilling traffic needs only till 2040(15-20 yrs from now) is very small. Projects like this takes years to plan and complete. Authorities should have atleast aimed for building 10 lane highway which would have met traffic needs of 30-40 yrs and would have grand achievement.
Exactly what I was thinking, I mean if you're building something significant atleast make sure it's future proof. 2040 isn't even 20 years from now, not gonna lie it should've been atleast 8 lane if not more
Congratulations, MMRDA, for this project. But i hope the bridge should have accommodated the railway line or metro connectivity as well. Also, it should have been at least 4 lanes each sides.
It is a masterpiece with a small inconvenience to middle-class, toll charge of Rs.250 one side. Mumbai Pune Expressway is Rs.270 for almost 100 KMs. But credit where it's due, it will change the dynamics of the city, it will be awesome if it connects expressway very soon & won't take years.
I surely agree with you about the toll fares, but on the other hand when we indirectly consume that much fuel when stuck in stop - go traffics in peak hours. It surely saves us time and fuel. It’s just my perspective.
I don’t think the company is recovering the money for 15 years atleast even with these fares. 18000crores for 1 lakh vehicles a day at 250 rs is 20 years to recover just the capital
I’d say there should be stricter law enforcement for heavy vehicles and have a 100kmph speed limit. Light vehicles should be allowed to go at their desired speed like the autobahn. If there is a crash, they should have drastic consequences. What is the point of having so much BHP if you can’t use it.
Wonderful presentation Hormaz sir. You really answered all the questions around the bridge and it's structure. Like to really know why this bridge 🌉 is said to become a game changer for Mumbai.
An absolute marvel of engineering the Atal Detu. I hope the existing roads in Mumbai like the WEH/EEH etc. are also improved to keep pace with such brilliant roads.
Absolutely stunning! The combination of the revolutionary Mumbai Trans Harbour Link and the Audi RS e-tron GT is a sight to behold. 🚗⚡ The sleek design of the RS e-tron GT perfectly complements the modernity of the Trans Harbour Link. Kudos to Audi for bringing luxury and innovation together. Can't wait to see more electrifying journeys like this! 🔥 #AudiRS #MumbaiTransHarbourLink #InnovationInMotion
Long cherished dream of Mumbaikars is fulfilled. It is an engineering marvel. Amazing video and excellent narration. Kudos to all those involved in this mega project. Jai Hind --- Prabhu Ramamurthi
Salute to all those who envisioned this great project our ministers engineers and labourers who worked day and night to complete this awesome trans Harbour bridge
Wow ❤👏🏼👊🏼 True Engineering Marvel❤️👏🏼🙏🏼 Big Thank You to Visioners, Engineers and our beloved Shree Nitin Gadkari Sir who is the big captain of this project. Thank You Autocar and Hotmazd Sir for showing this to us Drive Enthusiasts. I have added to my bucket list to drive this amazing track❤ Of course love this Audi RS the beast 😄👍🏼
Mumbai and people of Mumbai totally deserve this gift. Hardworking great people.
❤ love from Karnataka ❤
This isn't just a bridge it's a glimpse of rising India ❤❤

Thank You !! We will continue to build our Nation !!
I drove on the 7 mile bridge in US. So much is written about it. That is nothing in front of this.

@hypersonicmach1085 yeah 22km sea bridge in 7 years, no short feat
Bro studying history of mthl 💀
@hypersonicmach1085 record time is calculated as time of construction not other processes
@hypersonicmach1085 just to let you know that record time is counted from the day Contract was awarded, so think before trolling
@hypersonicmach1085, Record time from 2016, when the project was revived.
Big Salute to all the engineers, labourers and each person who have toiled hard to complete this amazing project - 'Atal Setu'. Kudos to you, Drive safe and happily.
12:27...take a screenshot....what a breathtaking view....never imagined mumbai will look like this ever..
What an Era to be an Indian. Decades down the line, we can be proud to have witnessed the rise of Bharat. We, the Citizens should be proud of this generation coz we are participants and contributors of the new Bharat. Jai hind !
Good to see India progress with modern infrastructure, they can build their way out of their difficulties with good design ✌️❤️🇬🇧

It's an absolute phenomenon coupled with magnificent engineering and technology 👌🏼👍🏼
Big big Thanks to the govt and the engineers & the workers ❤❤❤

Modern marvels. Awesomely done and captured by Autocar
1:07 What a view! This is how Mumbai will be introduced to someone taking this bridge to enter the city.
Hats off to the engineering team! This is a great step India is taking to become a powerful nation! Proud moment
If there ever is a must drive on road bucket list- this has to be added !
Built at a fast pace as well. Bandra Worli Sealink for example which is a fourth of this one's length took 11 years to complete.
Please make a dedicated video on the drive via Atal Setu vs the traditional drive from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai via the older route. Should be quite entertaining :)

This is the same feeling we bangaloreans had when electronic city flyover was first inaugurated and we drove through it. 1:58
Proud moment for Mumbai & India.
Fitting Tribute to Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji who envisioned the idea of golden quadrilateral. What a world class bridge! Absolutely marvelous.👌
Happy that those home grown engineers and other SMEs who didn’t leave Bharath could work on such a project. Also, it must have been a great opportunity and experience for all those who got involved in constructing this bridge. Everybody must have enhanced their skills too.
India is transforming in a big way. Amazing.
Imagine the views once the smog clears. Especially during heavy Mumbai monsoons❤
I still can't believe what I saw. Just awesome, wish it had came a bit earlier though. I hope it connects Pune expressway soon. Maruti Esteem at VRDE or Audi RS E Tron GT on this bridge this Mr Hormarzd always gets to experience it first hand.
Awesome structure, much needed for Mumbai, u covered this very well
Fascinating and brilliant congrats Mumbai people 🎉🎉🎉
13:05 gta vibes 🔥
Yupp i too got the same vibes
This is awesome accomplishment. Authorities had good vision and worked hard completing this project. But I feel vision of fulfilling traffic needs only till 2040(15-20 yrs from now) is very small.

it is hard to make 10 lane long bridge on water
Congratulations, MMRDA, for this project. But i hope the bridge should have accommodated the railway line or metro connectivity as well. Also, it should have been at least 4 lanes each sides.
मनकि सरोवरमें शुद्ध संकल्पोंके बीज बोये तो परिणाम देखो.सिद्धी अटल होगी !!!अटल सेतू सहि नाम!!!

A Morden marvel of engineering. Proud of India,s progress and super power
It is a masterpiece with a small inconvenience to middle-class, toll charge of Rs.250 one side.
Mumbai Pune Expressway is Rs.270 for almost 100 KMs.
But credit where it's due, it will change the dynamics of the city, it will be awesome if it connects expressway very soon & won't take years.
I surely agree with you about the toll fares, but on the other hand when we indirectly consume that much fuel when stuck in stop - go traffics in peak hours.
It surely saves us time and fuel.
It’s just my perspective.
You will end up saving fuel worth more than Rs. 250. If you want world class infrastructure, you have to be prepared to pay for it.
250 rs .. if you drive the legacy road you will have to spend more than that .. and one good thing is now to can save your time by 2 hours minimum
I don’t think the company is recovering the money for 15 years atleast even with these fares. 18000crores for 1 lakh vehicles a day at 250 rs is 20 years to recover just the capital
Cool. I wish someday the redevelopment of Dharavi will also be done.
New India!!
Kudos to hardworking engineers.
Thanks for the electric ride, sir....Cheers to Govt.of India, MMRDA and Autocar India...
The videography is on a next level😍
Speed Limit Should Be 120 For Cars & 100 For Heavy Vehicle
100 is more than enough. But govt has done good that scooters , bikes and three wheelers cannot ride on this road
heavy vehicles are not allowed there.
100 for heavy vehicles? That's a lot for a narrow bridge
Did you not see the visibility due to smog and high wind? Cars will be flying out of that bridge. This is not your regular highway.
I’d say there should be stricter law enforcement for heavy vehicles and have a 100kmph speed limit. Light vehicles should be allowed to go at their desired speed like the autobahn. If there is a crash, they should have drastic consequences. What is the point of having so much BHP if you can’t use it.
Great 👍👍👍
Best engineers
Best government
Best thing happened to Mumbaikars
Majestic... Great Going India..!!
Man india has come ver far
Yes the bridge but your car is really cool! 😮
After MTHL the most awaited sea link in Mumbai is Veer Savarkar Setu from Bandra to Versova. Its 46 km long with multiple interchanges
Congratulations to the Team and Workforce to achieve this Massive Project
Wonderful presentation Hormaz sir. You really answered all the questions around the bridge and it's structure. Like to really know why this bridge 🌉 is said to become a game changer for Mumbai.
One of the good video by Autocar. After a long time.
Well one man that should be appreciated here is surely sh.Nitin Gadkari
An absolute marvel of engineering the Atal Detu. I hope the existing roads in Mumbai like the WEH/EEH etc. are also improved to keep pace with such brilliant roads.
There are other auto channels on YT.
But AUTOCARS deliver quality and no useless bashing about things. Your content quality is really amazing.
Superb presentation by Hormazd Sorabjee. Truly an engineering marvel 👍🇮🇳
A superb piece of engineering. Very well thought out indeed.
Much needed lifeline for a chocking Mumbai….hopefully it will be maintained well by both authorities and the road users.
Even Google can't meet the pace of development in India. 😊😊
Because the bridge is not ready for the public, genius.
Many thanks for this video, ACI! Your visuals and description was stunning!!
Thanx to govt of india and engineers for this development
The bridge looks lit af. 🔥
Loving this new India, which is not slow and not pretending to be weak.
This is best Blog I ever seen made on this bridge. Thanks gentleman 🙏
Absolutely stunning! The combination of the revolutionary Mumbai Trans Harbour Link and the Audi RS e-tron GT is a sight to behold. 🚗⚡ The sleek design of the RS e-tron GT perfectly complements the modernity of the Trans Harbour Link.

India is rising ❤️🤙
Please make sure Instagramers/Reelers are not allowed on this bridge.
They have already banned any stoppages on the middle of the road for any purpose except emergency.
This bridge is great but it's too complicated for me. Anyways will there be bus service across this bridge?
Long cherished dream of Mumbaikars is fulfilled. It is an engineering marvel. Amazing video and excellent narration. Kudos to all those involved in this mega project. Jai Hind --- Prabhu Ramamurthi
World class! I'd love to drive on this road someday
Salute to all those who envisioned this great project our ministers engineers and labourers who worked day and night to complete this awesome trans Harbour bridge
Mr. Rohit Shetty must shoot some of his sequences here, for upcoming 😂😂
Phenomenal ❤❤❤ Jai Hind🇮🇳
The Setu will also be extended on the Sewri side all the way up to the Sea Link!
Wow ❤👏🏼👊🏼
True Engineering Marvel❤️👏🏼🙏🏼
Big Thank You to Visioners, Engineers and our beloved Shree Nitin Gadkari Sir who is the big captain of this project.
Thank You Autocar and Hotmazd Sir for showing this to us Drive Enthusiasts.
I have added to my bucket list to drive this amazing track❤
Of course love this Audi RS the beast 😄👍🏼
Fantastic video! Nicely peppered with details of the bridge and its construction
Autocar India editor in chief should do an Interview with Nitin Gadkari.
Best video I came across till date on MTHL 👏🏻 Thank you Sir
Proud of this infrastructure in India!!
One of the best video so far watched about Atal setu, Lot of information's shared.
Build a bridge between thanuskodi(india) and Talaimannar(sri langa)
It will improve the tourism and relationship between the two countries.
A slightly better AQI would have made the view even more splendid.
Nice informative video as always u guys deliver.....👍
Autocar is the best
For Mumbaikars, Time is Money...
I hope They maintain the quality of road
This is phenomenal. ❤
More than the bridge, I liked the production quality of the video. Cheers!
Driving is a pleasure in this country. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉It soothes the nerves.Engineering marvel.
It would be great if they could also build a metro line as well.
Excellent video !! Great music , beautiful camera and drone work , a well informed host , awesome car and an inspiring project completed !!
Now Fast and furious franchise have a new landmark for a chase scene here.
Nice to see an infrastructure project be on time in India. Its a very sight indeed…,
There should have been a metro or train line along with this road way
Hormazd Sorabjee ji ❤ sahab kya kamal video banaya hai
@autocarindia1 got to know new information, great way to present and camera views. I enjoyed your blog. ❤ Thank you
Terrific video. Can't wait for my next visit to Mumbai to get on this bridge!
Beautifully shot!
Thank you the constructors for this marvel and rest around the country even the flamingos enjoy their flight paths❤❤
Amazing video and well articulated
Bridge to heaven like feeling😊👍
A true engineering marvel...
Beautifully highlighted the features of the bridge. Kudos engineers behind this 👌❤️
Thank you MMRDA 🙏🇮🇳❤️🎉🎉🎉✨✨✨
