Mumbai Inaugurates First Double-Decker Flyover
News summary

Mumbai has inaugurated its first double-decker flyover, featuring a road on the lower deck and Metro Line 9 on the upper deck. The flyover, about 1 kilometer long, is expected to significantly ease traffic congestion, particularly at Pleasant Park, Hatkesh, and Silver Park Junctions in Mira Road, and reduce travel time by 8 to 10 minutes. Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and MMRDA officials highlighted the project's use of advanced technologies, such as precast I-girder and Tyre Straddle Carrier, which allowed for swift construction without disrupting traffic. The project also required the relocation of a 3 km high-voltage power line, elevated to 75 meters. This infrastructure aims to optimize land use, save fuel, reduce emissions, and enhance commuter comfort. The flyover marks a significant step in addressing Mumbai's transportation challenges and supporting its future urban development.
