MUMBAI TRANS HARBOUR LINK (SEWRI NHAVA SEA LINK)

LIMITED North-South EXPANSION ONLY WAY TO EXPAND

TIME TO ACT BEFORE ITS TOO LATE! 1996 1991 1983 1981 -83 1978 -80 1970 -72 1970 BMR PB Report First committee (Nizamuddin committee) Second committee 2001 BMRDA study Paranjpaye committee CRRI study Steering committee (JRD Tata committee) 30 years of study recommends urgent need to expand in East-West direction

Create better living conditions Encourage mass transit Connect cities, ports, airports by road, rail Disperse traffic, growth, population Better sharing of resources Long term projection EW expansion Traffic handled by MTHL by 2016 Airoli Mumbai Navi Mumbai Thane train road 1, 25, 000 pass. /day 25, 93, 000 PCU/day vehicle operating cost 1000 cr. per annum Mumbai Trans Harbour Link Siwri (JRD Tata Bridge) Nhava MPT JNPT Saving in cost by 2016 travel time cost Noise reduction 10 -12 db Pollution reduction at intersections 30%

NH 4 (with MTHL) Even dispersal , Efficient performance Road, Rail capacity Saturated NH 17 NH 4 (without MTHL) Do we have space for widening ? MTHL To Mumbai Pune Expressway Uran-Panvel Link NH 17 To Goa and western coast

Airoli Link Thane Link Sewri NH 4 Panvel To Pune and central areas MTHL Kon Nhava Mumbai-Pune Expressway Uran-Panvel Link NH 17 To Goa and western coast

( JRD TATA BRIDGE ) MULTILEVEL PARKING LOT Encourage use of mass transit Saving in fuel cost Car elevators, ramps provided Ticket validation machines MODERN TOLL PLAZA 16 lane toll plaza automated dispersal of traffic Traffic monitoring facility

( JRD TATA BRIDGE ) Ballast-less rail track to minimize load on bridge 12 car rake of passenger capacity 3500 to 1200 seats/rake 2 track rail link MUMBAI NHAVA 8 lane road link

( JRD TATA BRIDGE ) Span, height to accommodate navigation channels Allows visual transparency Viaducts preferred over embankment on environment ground 25 m. 120 m. - 600 m.

Traffic congestion commute time pollution health hazard noise pollution stress THOUGHT CONSIDERATION COEXISTANCE RESPECT Better living conditions productivity trade prosperity growth dispersal of traffic ambient air quality uniform use of resources employment better land use

FEASIBILITY STUDIES PLANNING CONSTRUCTION

FEASIBILITY STUDIES Alignment technically feasible Project is financially viable In depth analysis of biotic conditions Eco-friendly route chosen No displacement of existing settlement Better employment opportunities Better dispersal of traffics Sea Link is permitted in CRZ

PLANNING Use of latest technology Aesthetic designs Large spans used Strict compliance with laws Future expansion accommodated Better distribution of land use Modern traffic surveillance and monitoring

CONSTRUCTION Modern construction techniques Use of prefabricated components Use of corrosion resistant steel Construction camps monitored Quality assurance Effective environment management during construction covering material transport, labour

MAINTENANCE SAFETY BIOTIC CONDITIONS

MAINTENANCE Administration on BOT basis Funds generated by toll Low maintenance structure Low maintenance plantation Arboriculture

SAFETY Disaster Management Plan Traffic surveillance and monitoring Insurance against medical expenses in case of accidents

BIOTIC CONDITIONS Environment Management Plan Green belt avenue plantation along solid approaches Periodic monitoring of environmental parameters No adverse impact on account of this project

Viaducts preserve existing terrain Minimum excavation, grading Minimum emission due to smooth traffic Reduction in air, noise pollution Ambient air quality improved in the city No effect on tidal conditions Marine life least disturbed Safety exits provided Service areas provided Highest quality materials used Appropriate illumination, signs
