BMC Commissioner I.S. Chahal stated that the decision to impose toll taxes or not will be made by the government. The BMC has not sent any proposal for toll taxes. There won’t be any toll on the Coastal Road.

Mumbai: Whether the Coastal Road will open for traffic in January or February is still uncertain. However, a new dispute has arisen regarding toll taxes on the Coastal Road. BMC Commissioner I.S. Chahal told Navbharat Times that the government will decide whether toll taxes will be levied. When asked if BMC would send a proposal to the government for toll taxes, he mentioned that BMC wouldn’t send any such proposal. In the proposal sent by the BMC to the Central Environmental Department on May 11, 2017, for CRZ clearance, it is clearly stated that the Coastal Road will be a freeway, and there will be no tolls. MLA Aditya Thackeray alleged that BMC has plans to impose toll taxes on the Coastal Road. He held Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and BJP responsible for this. SP MLA Rais Shaikh also expressed displeasure over this.

May open in February The deadline for the construction of the Coastal Road has been extended several times. The BMC planned to open one lane of the Coastal Road for traffic by December 2023, but this won’t happen. Chief Minister Shinde recently announced that one lane of the Coastal Road would be opened in January 2024. However, BMC officials say that as 83% of the work has been completed, it will be challenging to achieve this in January. One lane could be opened in February 2024.

Ease of travel from Marine Drive to Worli The Coastal Road project extends from Marine Drive to Worli, which will be connected further with the Worli-Bandra Sea Link. This will link South Mumbai to Western Mumbai and beyond, connecting Dahisar to Bhayandar. Started in 2018, the estimated cost of this 10.58 km-long project has escalated from Rs. 8,000 crores to over Rs. 13,000 crores. The journey from Worli Sea Face to Marine Drive, which currently takes 30 minutes, is estimated to take an additional 10 to 15 minutes.

The Mumbai Trans Harbour Link project, when will it start? Announcement of the new inauguration date for MTHL, read more https://makaanbhai.com/the-mumbai-trans-harbour-link-project-when-will-it-start-announcement-of-the-new-inauguration-date-for-mthl-read-more/ Wed, 13 Dec 2023 07:20:47 +0000 https://makaanbhai.com/?p=20070 MTHL Inauguration Date: The dream of Mumbai residents for over 50 years is about to be fulfilled. Soon, the inauguration of an ambitious project in Mumbai will take place. According to the available information, the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link project will start soon. Initially planned to commence on December 25, 2023, coinciding with the birth anniversary of the late former Prime Minister of India, Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee.

However, due to the project not being completed on schedule, the inauguration date has been postponed once again. Efforts have been made since the 1970s to ease the traffic congestion in Mumbai.

During the 1970s, plans were set to connect Mumbai and Navi Mumbai through a sea bridge to reduce traffic congestion. However, this plan remained unrealized even after five decades.

In 2018, work began on the coastal road to connect Mumbai and Navi Mumbai directly. This marked the commencement of the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link project. This includes the development of the longest sea bridge in the country, connecting Shivdi to Nhava Sheva.

The work for this project began approximately five years ago and has now been completed within the last few months. Within the next two months, this project will be open to the general public.

According to media reports, this project is expected to commence within the next two months. The Deputy Chief Minister of the state and former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has also provided significant information about the inauguration of this project.

Fadnavis had indicated that this project was supposed to start on December 25. However, due to the delayed completion schedule, the situation appears different. Hence, this project will now commence in the new year.

The government has set a target to commence this project by the end of January 2024. Therefore, the dreams of Mumbai residents are soon to be realized. Once completed, this project will reduce travel time between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai to just 15 to 20 minutes.

As toll collection is necessary while using the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link, an open-road tolling system will be implemented. Hence, vehicles won’t need to stop for toll collection.

Additionally, expertise in Fastag stickers has been developed to collect tolls without vehicle stoppage. This technology, developed in collaboration with the transportation department, will aid in toll collection from vehicle operators seamlessly.

Due to various government-initiated projects, property values in areas like Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Ulwe, Uran, Pushpak Nagar, Taloja, among others, are expected to rise significantly. This is a golden opportunity for homebuyers.
