CIDCO Launches Key Water Infrastructure Projects in Navi Mumbai

To meet Navi Mumbai’s projected water demand of 1,257 million litres per day by 2050, the City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) has launched several critical water infrastructure projects aimed at ensuring a sustainable water supply across its jurisdiction and supporting the city’s urban growth.

One of the major initiatives underway is the expansion of the Hetawane Water Supply Scheme, which is being executed in four phases. Progress on the project includes 41 per cent completion of the water treatment plant, 8.5 per cent of the raw water tunnel, and 25.7 per cent of the pure water tunnel. The entire project is scheduled for completion by June 2029.

CIDCO is also planning for long-term needs by developing new water sources, such as the Kondhane Dam on the Ulhas River, which will initially supply 250 MLD, with the capacity to scale up to 350 MLD. Both the Kondhane and Balganga dam projects are expected to be completed within the next four to five years. To address short-term requirements, the Maharashtra government had approved an additional 120 MLD allocation from the Hetawane Dam in August 2020 at a cost of Rs 1.19 billion. This raised CIDCO’s total allocation from the dam to 270 MLD, supporting immediate demand and strengthening regional water security.
