The south-bound corridor of the coastal road between Worli and Marine Drive, also known as Mumbai Coastal Road Project Phase 1, in south Mumbai was inaugurated by Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde on Monday, March 11. Initially the Coastal Road will be open for only south-bound traffic (Worli to Marine Drive).
The construction work of the Mumbai Coastal Road had started on October 13, 2018, and its projected cost was INR 12,721 crore.
A high-speed corridor, the Coastal Road is 10.58-km long, of which 9.5 km has been opened for vehicular movement in the first phase. At present the launching of girders for the bow-string bridge that will connect the road with Bandra Worli Sea Link (BWSL) is underway and this bridge is set to become operational by end of May this year, following which the entire 10.58-km stretch of the Coastal Road will become operational.
As of now, motorists can enter the coastal road from Worli Seaface, Haji Ali interchange and Amarson's interchange points, and exit at Marine Lines. While the Amarsons interchanges will have four arms, the Haji Ali and Worli interchanges will have five and eight arms, respectively.
Officials said that initially only one arm in each of the interchanges will be made operational. On Friday, BMC authorities carried out a test run of vehicles and BEST buses where it was decided that the maximum speed on the arterial road would be 80 kmph, inside the tunnel it will be around 60 kmph and 40 kmph at the interchanges.
Civic officials said in the initial stage motorists are likely to drive at lower speeds as they figure out the interchanges. Meanwhile, a civic official said they have also kept towing vehicles, ambulances and cranes on standby as a precautionary measure. The BMC is also set to deploy wardens.
In the next phase, the BMC will construct the Coastal Road that will connect Versova with Dahisar in the western suburbs that will be 20.75-km long.
The total project has been divided into six different packages. Package A will cover 4.5 km between Versova and Bangur Nagar (Goregaon), package B will cover 1.66 km between Bangur Nagar and Mindspace (Malad). Packages C and D include north and south bound carriageways that will be created between Mindspace and Charkop (Kandivali). Each of these packages will be 3.66-km long each. Package E, which will be 3.78-km long, will connect Charkop with Gorai and the final package F will be 3.69-km long connecting Gorai with Dahisar.
The next phase of the project will cost INR 16,621 crore and the BMC in December issued work orders to six different firms. The BMC has set up a six-year deadline for completing the project.
Eknath Shinde has said a world-class central park spread over 320 acres will also come up along the Dharmaveer Sambhaji Maharaj Coastal Road.
