| Abstract: |
The new Sea link Bridge over Main land Sewri on Mumbai side to Ulwe on Navi Mumbai side is characterized by some aesthetically appealing elevations of the Bridge and large spans. This paper gives a glimpse of the design adopted and focuses on innovative execution ideas developed to overcome challenges faced during construction of the Trans-Harbour Link Package-1 starting from Sewri end. It details out use of lean construction method followed without causing any disturbance to the surrounding environment. Most importantly the port facilities, navigation channel and seabed pipelines in the Mumbai Bay, which posed real risk during execution of the works along with the size, intertidal zone and Marine site conditions developed extreme demanding conditions. |
