History of Signature Bridge:
By the end of 1998, the Delhi government finalised the draft plan for this bridge. However, construction of the bridge was delayed due to multiple reasons, mainly lack of manpower and financial difficulties. When the project started, its final cost was Rs. 1518.37 crore. The Delhi government was financially restricted and it was very difficult for it to fund the extra rising budget. Work finally started in 2010. A fresh deadline of end 2016 was set in 2013. The bridge was finally inaugurated on 4 November 2018 by the then Chief Minister of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal after a number of delays.
