The bridge was completed on June 10, 2025, ahead of its deadline. The new bridge replaces the 150-year-old Carnac Bridge, which was dismantled in August 2022 after being declared unsafe by Central Railway. It serves as a crucial connector between the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, Masjid Bunder, and Mohammed Ali Road areas.
