Mumbai Coastal Road North Project: BMC Pushes 60-Km Versova-Bhayandar Link Towards December 2028 Completion

The Mumbai Coastal Road North, also referred to as the Versova Bhayandar Link Road, is an extensive project undertaken by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). Spanning 60 kilometres, this project has the potential to drastically reduce travel time from Versova to Bhayandar, from a duration of 90 to 120 minutes, to a mere 15 to 20 minutes.

The project's total estimated cost amounts to Rs 22,000 crore, with a targeted completion date of December 2028, though the final deadline extends to March 2029. Upon completion, the Coastal Road North will serve as a vital link connecting Mumbai Coastal Road South, Bandra Worli Sea Link, and Bandra Versova Sea Link, ultimately uniting the entirety of Mumbai's coastal belt.

This development is anticipated to alleviate traffic congestion in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, facilitating seamless, uninterrupted travel from South Mumbai to Bhayandar.
