In a major safety upgrade for motorists heading toward Pune and back, the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has officially commenced work on installing advanced windscreens along the massive cable-stayed bridge section of the Mumbai-Pune Expressway ‘missing link’ project.

The specialised windshields are being set up on either side as a buffer for smaller vehicles from high-velocity crosswinds that risk causing cars to skid, drift laterally, or even topple over while crossing the deep valley.
