  • Mumbai Infrastructure: What Is and What Will Be?
    MUMBAI INFRASTRUCTURE: WHAT IS AND WHAT WILL BE? Infrastructure development acts as a cornerstone for any city in order to determine the growth trajectory and to become an economic and real estate powerhouse. While Mumbai is the financial capital of India, its infrastructure has not been able to keep pace with the sharp rise in its demographic and economic profile. The city’s road and rail infrastructure is under tremendous pressure from serving a population of more than 25 million people. This report outlines major upcoming infrastructure projects and analyses their impact on the Mumbai real estate market.

  • Project Summary 1
    Proposed Road Tunnel between Tikujiniwadi (Thane) & Borivali (Mumbai) in Maharashtra, India PROJECT SUMMARY 1. INTRODUCTION Thane Ghodbundar Road (SH-42) is a major link road connecting Mumbai-Ahmadabad Road (NH-8) part of Golden Quadrilateral near Ghodbundar to Mumbai-Agra Road (NH-3) near Kapurbawadi. This link passes through Municipal Limits of Mira Bhayander Municipal Corporation area from Ch.00/000 to Ch.04/400 and thereafter it passes through Thane city urban area from Ch.04/400 to Ch.14/900. This is an important East-West link and carries heavy commercial traffic between NH-3 and NH-8. This road faces massive traffic congestion at various spots during peak traffic time. Congestion of traffic causes undesired burning of automobile fuel, which is a national loss in addition to the contribution of pollution, which would be a contributing factor for air quality in the adjacent Sanjay Gandhi National Park. Keeping in view, these factors in addition to reducing travel time and easy access between Thane and Western suburbs of Mumbai, it is proposed to construct twin tube 3 lane tunnel between Thane and Borivali under Sanjay Gandhi National Park. The Maharashtra State Road development Corporation (MSRDC) is proposing to construct Twin tube, 3 Lanes (each side) highway tunnel of about 10.8 km, which passes through below the Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), connecting Western Express Highway (WEH) near Borivali and Ghodbunder road (of Thane) Near Tikujiniwadi. The feasibility of tunnel boring machine technology will be explored for doing the tunneling work as it causes very low vibrations and will have minimal impact on the surface environment.

    CONSTRUCTION & INFRASTRUCTURE January 5, 2016 Bridging the chasm …long road ahead Given the government thrust on the infrastructure investment, we witnessed that over the last two years project awarding picked up from the urban infrastructure segments like Roads, Buildings, and Metro projects. We believe that capex on urban infrastructure projects will continue given the strong bid pipeline from road and metro projects. The issues with respect to land acquisition and weak balance sheets of infrastructure companies got addressed as the government increased capex spending on EPC mode rather BOT/PPP projects which, helped companies raise funds; as well as funding from multilateral agencies also increased Given the importance of government spending in driving the order books of our coverage universe as well as the increasing importance of the states in becoming enablers of growth, we have analyzed certain states which form 50% of India’s GDP.
