It is to be mentioned here that a 233 meter long and 4.6 feet wide suspension bridge was constructed on the basis of wood and wire by the Prajavatsal Raja Sir Waghji Thakor on the Machhu river of Morbi during the princely period which was used by the king only to go from the Raj Mahal to the Raj Durbar. But over time the responsibility of this bridge was handed over to Morbi Municipality.
