Maharashtra Approves DP-2034 Revisions for Versova-Dahisar Coastal Road Project
The Maharashtra government has approved revisions to the Development Plan (DP)-2034 to incorporate the Versova-Dahisar Coastal Road project into Mumbai's statutory framework. The 22.03-km road includes a 17.57-km coastal stretch from Versova to the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road (GMLR) connector and a 4.46-km GMLR connector. The plan adds an 11.37-km coastal segment between the GMLR connector and Dahisar and removes the earlier alignment near Valnai Metro station. The project will be executed in six phases to improve north-south connectivity.
