The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) will execute the 43- km long Versova-Virar sea link project along the west coast of Mumbai. Earlier, Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), was the nodal agency for the construction of this sea link project at an investment of ₹21,000 crore, Commissioner S V R Srinivas, said, adding that work started by the MSRDC will now be taken over by the MMRDA. In fact, MSRDC built the renowned sea link between Bandra and Worli and the new link is to be built with connectors at Charkop, Uttan, Vasai, and Virar, as per the pre-feasibility study. The 4+4 lane main bridge will connect Versova to Virar via four 3+3 lane connectors. With the coastal road, the Bandra-Worli sea link, the Bandra-Versova sea link, and the Virar extension, the project promises to reduce the current three-hour drive from Nariman Point in south Mumbai to Virar to one hour. The Versova-Virar Sea Link would relieve congestion on the Western Express Highway as well as internal arterial highways like S V Road and Link Road, said an official spokesperson.
