The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) issued a tender for a four-lane bridge between Nariman Point and Cuffe Parade, which would serve as the final link in the under-construction coastal road’s southern terminus.
MMRDA Metropolitan Commissioner S V R Srinivas said, “We have floated a tender for the design and construction of this link. It will be the last mile connectivity for the coastal road after it ends at Princess Street flyover and will also reduce decongestion at Nariman Point and Colaba.”
He added, “On the Cuffe Parade side, while one arm of the road will go towards Captain Prakash Pethe Marg, another will go to Wodehouse Road. We will have a 100 m span in between to allow fishing boats. This connector road will also have a walking track and a cycling track and a gallery from where people can watch the sea.”
