Overview
Spanning the six-lane Thane–Belapur Road, the Bonkode foot-over-bridge gives the people of Bonkode village a safe crossing to the TTC industrial belt, where many of them work.
The 72-metre tubular steel structure, clad in glass and ACP, has a lift and a ramp on each side for full accessibility, with glazed, naturally lit landings designed to keep out the rain while allowing cross-ventilation.
Known locally as the White House FOB, it was completed for the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation in 2012 and conceived as a prototype for the corporation's other crossings.
