Goregaon-Mulund Link Road Flyover Nears 15 October Opening

Work on a 1.26 km flyover forming part of Mumbai’s Goregaon-Mulund Link Road project has entered its final stage, with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation planning to open the structure to traffic by 15 October. A traffic load test is scheduled for the second week of October before the flyover is cleared for public use.

Abhijeet Bangar, Additional Municipal Commissioner for Projects, inspected the site on 24 September and reviewed the remaining construction and safety work. The main structural work has been completed, including the construction of 31 piers and 30 spans, installation of girders, deck slab construction and the approach roads on both sides.

The 3x3-lane flyover will connect Dindoshi Court with Dadasaheb Phalke Chitranagari. It begins near Dindoshi Court, curves around Ratnagiri Junction Hotel and descends at Dadasaheb Phalke Chitranagari. The structure has been built using precast reinforced concrete segmental box girders, a construction method that allows bridge components to be manufactured before installation at the site.

Finishing work is under way and includes painting, installation of directional signboards and electric poles, thermoplastic road markings, cat’s eyes and noise barriers. These works are expected to be completed before the technical clearance process begins.

The planned load test will evaluate the flyover’s construction quality, safety and ability to carry traffic. It will form part of the final assessment before the remaining technical procedures are completed. Bangar has also directed officials to remove barricades from roads beneath the flyover, allowing traffic to use the space fully while the project moves towards opening.
