MUMBAI TRANS HARBOUR LINK(SEWRI NHAVA SEA LINK)

Introduction• Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), is also

known as Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), Sewri-Nhava Sheva Trans Harbour Link

• It will connect freeway grade road bridge connecting the Indian city of Mumbai with Navi Mumbai .

• If completed, it would be the longest sea bridge in India.

• The sea link is expected to reduce commuting time between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, and provide direct connectivity to Mumbai Port Trust, Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust and the proposed Navi -Mumbai International Airport

• It will also allow faster travel to Thane, Nashik, Panvel, Pune and southern India and is also expected to boost the economic growth of neighbouring Raigad district and raise real estate prices in the region.

Highlights of MTHL

• Carries 6 Highway

• Cross Thane Greek

• Owner MMRDA

• Total Length 22 km(14m)

• Design life 100+yr

• Construction Cost 9360 cr (US$1.5 billion)

• Opened in 2019 (planned)

History• The MTHL was first proposed in the 1970s. The first concrete

attempt to build it was made in 2004, when Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (IL&FS) submitted a proposal to implement the project on a build, own, operate and transfer (BOOT) basis.

• The State Government called for a fresh bids for the project in 2008. However, none of the 13 companies that had shown interest, submitted bids.

• The media criticized the political feud between the ruling Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Congress coalition, as being responsible for slowing "down the pace of Mumbai's development".

• The project received environmental clearance from the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) on 23 October 2012

Cost• The cost of the MTHL has increased several times. In 2005, the

cost of the project was estimated at 4000 Cr.• The cost was revised to Rs. 6000 Cr in 2008. It was then

increased to Rs. 8800 Cr in November, • 2011 and finally to Rs.9360 Cr in August 2012.• In January 2013, the Central Government sanctioned 1920 Cr

(US$310 million), which is 20% of the project cost, in viability gap for the MTHL.

• The State Government will also contribute the same amount. • The remaining 60% will have to be borne by the developer who

wins the bid.
