CHENNAI: The glass bridge in Kanniyakumari, the first ever such structure in India that was a hit among tourists, will be closed for two days for maintenance work.

According to a Thanthi TV report, tourists will not be allowed on the glass bridge until January 13 (Monday). By then the maintenance work is expected to be completed.

The state-of-the-art glass fibre bridge, connecting Thiruvalluvar Statue to Vivekananda Rock Memorial, was unveiled by Chief Minister MK Stalin on December 30.
