Three Bidders shortlisted for Dahisar-Bhayander link road construction

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has received three bids for the construction of the Dahisar-Bhayander Link Road (DBLR), a crucial project aimed at enhancing connectivity between the western suburbs and the outskirts of Mumbai. The bidders in contention are J Kumar Infraprojects, Larsen & Toubro (L&T), and Afcons Infrastructure. The estimated cost of the project is Rs 3,186 crore.

Last year in October, the BMC initiated the tender process for the construction of an elevated road that would stretch from Link Road in Dahisar (West) within BMC limits to Mira-Bhayander (West) in the Mira-Bhayander Municipal Corporation (MBMC) jurisdiction.

The proposed elevated road will be 45 meters wide and span a total length of 5 kilometers. Within Mumbai limits, the road will cover 1.5 kilometers, while in the MBMC jurisdiction, it will extend for 3.5 kilometers. The project is a collaborative effort between the BMC and the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA). It is set to commence near the Kandarpada Metro station in Dahisar and extend up to Uttan Road in Bhayander.
