Mumbai's Andheri-Goregaon Cable-Stayed Bridge Cost Rises to Rs 709 Crore After Power Line Relocation
The cost of Mumbai's planned Andheri-Goregaon cable-stayed bridge has increased to Rs 709.16 crore due to the need to relocate Tata Power's 110-kV transmission line and towers obstructing the project. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) approved Rs 24.58 crore for this specialized relocation, up from the earlier Rs 10 crore. Construction began in December 2025 after land issues delayed progress. The bridge aims to provide an alternative north-south corridor, easing traffic congestion and eventually connecting with the Mumbai Coastal Road extension.
