Mumbai Advances Goregaon-Mulund and Orange Gate-Marine Drive Tunnel Projects
Two major tunnelling projects in Mumbai are progressing to enhance city connectivity. The Goregaon-Mulund Link Road (GMLR) tunnel has excavated 183 metres using the first TBM 'Tulsi', with the second machine 'Vihar' set to start by October 2026. Meanwhile, the Orange Gate-Marine Drive tunnel has completed 1 km of excavation, aiming to reduce travel time between these points to five minutes. Both projects involve complex underground work beneath existing infrastructure, employing tunnel-boring machines and strict safety measures.
