Mumbai Trans Harbour Link: 52% work completed

The Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL) has been 52% completed, according to media reports.

Of the planned 21.8 km span length, 6.34 km is complete.

As per reports by the media citing information from Maharashtra minister Eknath Shinde's Public Relation Officer (PRO), 58% of financial expense has been achieved in the project till now.

The report said that while 205 have been built on the right side, 211 pillars have been built on the left side of the main bridge. There are 128 and 133 pillars constructed on the right and left sides, respectively.

The bridge will link Sewri in Mumbai with Chirle in Navi Mumbai, relieving traffic jams and saving time for passengers. It will also enhance connectivity to the Mumbai-Pune Expressway.

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is the implementing firm for the project.

Nearly eight months of workdays were lost due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which hit the project considerably. The sea corridor will have noise restrictions on a 6 km stretch in a bid to hinder the view of the sensitive BARC nuclear complex and preserve the movement of migratory birds at the Sewri mudflats.

The MTHL project price is pegged at Rs 17,843 crore. MMRDA intends to complete the project in 2023 despite the Covid-19 pandemic.
