A landslide on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway's newly-built Missing Link corridor disrupted traffic on Monday, barely nine weeks after the Rs 6,695-crore stretch was inaugurated as a permanent fix for the route's worst bottleneck.
The landslide occurred near the exit of Tunnel 2 on the Pune-to-Mumbai carriageway amid continuous heavy overnight rainfall, damaging a retaining wall and sending a heavy flow of mud, rocks and water onto the road, according to the State Highway Police.
