He further stated that the government plans to complete it by September 2024.
"The 13.3 kilometre missing link is from Khopoli to Kusgaon and involves building two tunnels with lengths of 1.67 kilometres and 8.92 kilometres as well as a bridge at a height of 180 metres, Dada Bhuse said.
"About 80 per cent of the work is completed. We plan to finish the project by September next year. Advanced technology from around the world has been deployed," Bhuse added.
