MMRDA to connect MTHL road with Mumbai-Pune Expressway

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) plans to reduce the travelling time between Mumbai to Pune by connecting the under-construction Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL) road with the Mumbai-Pune Expressway.

MMRDA is seeking a consultant to prepare the detailed project report (DPR) of this project.

It has floated a tender to appoint a consultant for the given project.

The work of the consultant will be the preparation of DPR for connectivity of MTHL to Mumbai-Pune Expressway, and as per the basic plan, as the MTHL will be constructed in Chirle, Navi Mumbai, a 6 km of the link road will be connected to the Expressway.

Now the commuters will be able to reach Worli from Pune and vice-versa by avoiding any traffic congestion. Their overall travelling time will be reduced by over an hour.

The Authority also plans to connect MTHL to National Highway (NH) 17, towards Bengaluru.

The MTHL project will connect Mumbai's Sewri to Chirle in Navi Mumbai through a 21.8 km long bridge over the sea. The estimated cost of this infrastructure project is Rs 18,000 crore.
