2 Project Description

Mumbai is popularly known as Commercial Capital of India. The city and the metropolitan region
surrounding the city have grown rapidly over the past few decades. The population within the MCGM
limit has increased from 4.2 million in 1961 to today’s 12.44 million (As per 2011 Census). The growth
of vehicular traffic is no exception. The city currently has close to 25 lakhs of vehicles with 500 new
vehicles getting registered every day. With the present road network of about only 2000 km, it is
becoming difficult to handle the traffic. In order to improve the level of service, MCGM has carried out
various studies in the past through reputed consultants and have identified new road links that would
help decongest the existing road network. With the growth of residential and commercial development
in the city, there has been an increase in demand for adequate infrastructure improvement in the
suburbs to ensure proper connectivity. It has become necessary to address these issues on priority.

The following are the salient features for the Twin Tube Tunnel as per Report submitted by the appointed
Consultant:
