Mumbai: BMC Seeks PMC For ₹1,800-Crore Mithi River Package 3, Nearly 2,000 Families Face Rehabilitation

Mumbai, September 24, 2026 - The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is urgently seeking a Project Management Consultant (PMC) to handle the complex Mithi River Rejuvenation Package 3, which is set to be completed by December 2029. The Rs 1,800-crore initiative aims to address two critical issues: tidal flooding and sewage discharge.

Rehabilitation of around 2,000 families is a major challenge, particularly in areas like Dharavi, Kurla, Sakinaka, and Vakola. The project will involve constructing a major sewage pumping station, sewage interception and diversion systems, sewer lines, retaining walls, and service roads. The Package 3, awarded to an Adani Group-led consortium in November 2025, is expected to enhance the Mithi River's capacity to handle 309 million litres per day (MLD) of untreated sewage.
