South Mumbai Gets Rs 848-Crore Cable-Stayed Flyover for Traffic Relief

  • BMC and MRIDC plan an 892-meter cable-stayed flyover connecting Byculla's Y Bridge area to the JJ Flyover ramp.
  • The project, costing Rs 848.63 crore, aims to improve connectivity and ease traffic flow in South Mumbai.
  • It will bypass bottlenecks around Nagpada, Saboo Siddik Polytechnic College, and Richardson & Cruddas junctions.
  • The new flyover will enhance access to the Eastern Freeway and Mumbai Trans Harbour Link, reducing Eastern Express Highway congestion.
