Thane, Jul 27 (PTI) The Gandhari bridge in Kalyan in Thane district was on Tuesday reopened for traffic a day after it was closed for inspection by the Maharashtra Public Works Department, an official said.

While PWD engineers had initially suspected that the bridge had developed a crack and closed it for traffic, an inspection showed that the "crack" was actually a black piece of cloth hanging from the side of the structure, he said.
