On record
A flyover on the Chennai-Bengaluru National Highway at Hosur developed a roughly 15cm-wide, 50-metre-long gap after shifting laterally by about half a foot, forcing complete closure and diverting traffic onto service roads for up to 3km of congestion during emergency stabilisation.
The official record states: "Not specified: cause of the lateral shift was still under investigation by NH officials."

“It slid half a foot sideways on a national highway and opened a fifty-metre gap, and that is how anyone found out.”
“Three kilometres of service road congestion because a flyover on the Chennai-Bengaluru route decided to move house.”
“NH officials are investigating why it shifted. In the meantime, the flyover is not going anywhere, which is new for it.”
