Overview

BMC has envisaged a Mumbai Coastal Road Project –South (MCRP) along the Western Seafront of the city to decongest the existing roads. In the first phase, this ambitious project intends to connect from Shamaldas Gandhi Marg (Princess Street Flyover, Marine Drive) in South to Worli End of Bandra Worli Sea Link comprising a combination of coastal road based on reclamation, tunnels, bridges/flyovers, elevated roads, interchanges, sea wall/break wall etc.

India’s largest 12.19 meter diameter tunnel is being constructed 20 meter below the shore of Arabian Sea and 70 meter below the Malabar Hill has three lanes for transportation for south & north bound traffic. One of the lane is proposed to be reserved for emergency transport. The Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) which is being used for building this tunnel has been named as ‘Mavala’.

The objective of this project is to provide an alternate North-South Trunk route for the people of Mumbai which provides improved mobility to relieve the traffic congestion in Mumbai, enhances environment and leads to sustainable development of much needed recreational public open spaces/greenery.
