BMC Plans 1.6 km Double-Decker Bridge to Cut Goregaon-Airoli Travel Time
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) plans to build a 1.6 km double-decker cable-stayed bridge between Nahur and Airoli as part of the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road project. This Rs 1,354 crore bridge aims to reduce travel time between Goregaon and Airoli to under 20 minutes by providing a parallel route above the existing flyover and easing congestion. The design includes four cloverleaf ramps for access from Thane and Vashi, with feasibility studies underway by VJTI.
