Before reconstructed by Britishers, there was a wooden bridge at this place. So got the name Lakadi Pool.

Only four wheelers are permitted on this bridge during 7 am to 9 pm. After this, it is open for all types of vehicles.

  • also called "lakadi pul"
  • not allowed for 2wheelers, let all people know this all cops will get you
  • I don't understand why 2-wheelers are not allowed here? Moreover, there is so much traffic that it is not possible to view no-entry sign for 2-wheelers, which is hand-drawing. This bridge has turned into money making business by traffic cops. They regularly indulge in bribes.
  • While handling traffic, one fails to look at the no 2 wheeler sign. It happened to me.
  • I traveled on this bridge by 2 wheeler on 13/11/2011 by mistake as I was not aware of no-entry for 2 wheeler. The Traffic police stopped me and took my license. Then he asked me to go to Traffic Police Station near J M Road to pay fine as he didn't had receipt book for fine collection. I had no time so I paid him bribe of Rs 100 and left from there. This is nice trap by Traffic cop for bribing ignorant public...
  • because of heavy traffic
  • I have heard that the lakdi pool is a very horror place too,due to many suicides and murders.
  • yaa right .. nice logic ..to add horror to every historic place.. haha..
