CIDCO Plans Long-Term Transit Vision for Navi Mumbai

The City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) has announced plans to prepare a Comprehensive Mobility Plan (CMP) for Navi Mumbai and the surrounding airport influence area known as NAINA (Navi Mumbai Airport Influence Notified Area). The CMP will serve as a strategic transport framework guiding infrastructure development through to 2054 and beyond.
The long-term mobility roadmap aims to foster a sustainable, inclusive, and efficient transport system for one of India’s most rapidly developing urban corridors.
“With upcoming developments such as the Navi Mumbai International Airport, Corporate Park, Aerocity, Edu City, Logistic Park, and Medicity, alongside expanding residential and industrial hubs, traffic volumes will increase significantly,” said Vijay Singhal, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of CIDCO.
The CMP will adopt a holistic approach by integrating multiple transport modes—public transport, private vehicles, walking, and cycling. Key objectives include enhancing safety, sustainability, and connectivity across Navi Mumbai and NAINA.
CIDCO stressed the urgency of a coordinated transit framework as the region braces for large-scale infrastructure additions. These include the Navi Mumbai International Airport, the Atal Setu (Mumbai Trans Harbour Link), Metro Line 8 connecting NMIA to Mumbai International Airport, the Panvel–Karjat suburban railway line, the Belapur–NMIA Metro Line 1 extension, and various commercial and industrial zones in Kharghar, Taloja, and Ulwe.
Navi Mumbai currently boasts 980 km of roads, major corridors such as the Thane–Belapur Road, Sion–Panvel Highway, and Palm Beach Road, a 60-km suburban railway network, the Belapur–Pendhar Metro, and bus services.
CIDCO noted that the CMP will help identify existing transport gaps, prioritise future investments, and phase implementation in line with regional mobility requirements. The final plan will be drafted following consultations with stakeholders, transport professionals, and urban planners.
