06 May 2025 CW Team

Vijay Singhal, Vice-Chairman and Managing Director of City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO), conducted a site review on Tuesday of the proposed Kharghar–Turbhe Tunnel Link Road and CIDCO’s housing scheme in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.

He was accompanied by Joint Managing Directors Shantanu Goel and Dr Raja Dayanidhi, Chief Engineer for Navi Mumbai International Airport and Special Projects Sheela Karunakaran, Additional Chief Engineer Prabhakar Phulari, and Superintending Engineer Santosh Ombhase.

The tunnel project is expected to significantly improve north-south connectivity in Navi Mumbai. It will link Turbhe in the north with Kharghar in the south, forming a four-lane road tunnel. The route will span approximately 5.49 kilometres, starting from the Sion–Panvel Highway near Juinagar Railway Station and ending at Central Park in Kharghar.

CIDCO is overseeing multiple urban development and housing projects in the region as part of its broader infrastructure and city planning agenda. The Kharghar–Turbhe Tunnel is aimed at reducing travel time, easing congestion, and enhancing regional mobility.

The review underscores CIDCO’s continued focus on delivering critical transport and housing infrastructure to support Navi Mumbai’s rapid growth.
