According to an official statement, Atal Setu aligns seamlessly with the Prime Minister’s vision to enhance the populace’s mobility by fortifying urban transport infrastructure and connectivity, as conveyed by news agency PTI. In December 2016, PM Modi laid the foundation stone for this visionary bridge, now spanning an impressive 21.8 km with six lanes. Of this expanse, approximately 16.5 km gracefully traverses the sea, while the remaining 5.5 km weaves through the land.
