BMC Commences Construction of Twin Tunnel to Connect Goregaon and Mulund

Mumbai's commuters are in for a treat as the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) gears up to begin the ambitious Goregaon-Mulund Link Road project. The project aims to bridge the gap between the Western and Eastern Suburbs, easing the commute for thousands of residents

In a significant development, BMC has successfully completed the tender process for the construction of twin, fully underground tunnels spanning a distance of 4.70 kilometers each. Additionally, the box tunnel, including approaches with a length of 1.6 kilometers in Film City premises, will be built as part of the project. This crucial link will connect Goregaon Film City to Mulund Khindipada.

After careful evaluation of the bids received during the tender process, the JKumar-NCC Joint Venture (JV) has emerged as the lowest bidder and secured the contract for the construction. This joint venture brings together the expertise of JKumar Infraprojects Ltd. and NCC Limited, ensuring a seamless and efficient execution of the project.

With all necessary preparations in place, the actual construction work is scheduled to kick off in October 2023. The tunnel's construction is estimated to be completed within 4.5 years from the commencement date, promising an impressive feat in infrastructure development for the city.

Once completed, the twin tunnel under the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road will offer Mumbai's commuters a much-needed respite from the perennial traffic congestion and provide a faster, smoother, and more efficient travel option between the Western and Eastern Suburbs.

The new tunnel is set to revolutionize the way Mumbaikars commute and will significantly reduce travel time for daily commuters. This landmark infrastructure project is expected to boost connectivity, enhance economic activities, and elevate the overall transportation experience in the city.

As the construction commences, the citizens of Mumbai can look forward to a brighter, more connected future, with improved accessibility and seamless travel between the bustling suburbs of Goregaon and Mulund.

In conclusion, Mumbai's BMC is taking a remarkable step towards transforming the city's transportation landscape with the Twin Tunnel project. Commuters are encouraged to prepare for a smoother and more efficient travel experience that is just a few years away from becoming a reality!
