This project is repeating the mistakes we made in the US. - In big cities, traffic always grows to fill new roads until congestion reaches the previous level. If you build it, the drivers will come. - The fact that this was recommended by US consultants from the 1960s suggests the ideas align with the ill-conceived transport planning of that era in the US. US cities have been tearing down the roads along their coasts built around that time, because those roads are a blight and did nothing to improve the city. - It's a joke to put "green space" right next to a highway. Few will want to hang out in a loud, polluted space. This looks like a marketing ploy to make it appear the project planners are community driven.

The biggest issue with these projects is they never end up fulfilling the demands they set out to do. The Bandra Worli sea link is underused and still incomplete to this day decades after its construction began. The promenades almost always look like mess, so not only will you lose your costal views which provide some relief in a congested city but you also don't fix the traffic issue. They should've concentrated on the Metro project first before the coastal road. And the government needs to strengthen industries in smaller cities outside of Mumbai/Delhi/Bangalore/Kolkata etc so the population is better spread out.

They will largely be because everyone can’t afford the expensive tolls they are going to impose to recuperate the cost. There already one sea link like this in Mumbai that charges 4$ toll for a two way pass. It is usually empty but still used by about 50000 vehicle daily. So I guess it turns a profit. However, congestion on the alternate route through city roads are as jam packed as ever. So these projects are more showpiece that make investors their money back and looks good for the city. But doesn’t solve the problem of an everyday traveller.

However, they have the permission only for a specific period of time which can be anywhere from 20-50 years to recuperate the cost. After that the government takes over. It is a matter of debate that these companies often pay govt(bribes) to extend these contracts and permission to collect tolls for these roads. So they have a steady source of income through toll collection. With the FASTag implementation tolls are now digital.

And a huge metro network is under construction with few line already operational. The reason for this construction it the relieve the congested roads which also run public buses to cut the fuel wastage as well as time. I know marine highway seems like a bad idea, but the city has no other option as it surrounded by sea from all sides but one.

The government (central) is spending $1.5 trillion on NIP(National Infrastructure Pipeline) under which 7300+ important infrastructural projects are being execute and most are roadways and railways projects to boost connectivity and trade.

In my city (Oslo, Norway) the main highway runs as a tunnel under most of the city centre. It's great, we get a modern highway system without negative effects. Building a system like that is really expensive though and not really a possibility for a city like Mumbai thats larger and has difficult ground conditions for tunnels. This project will have negative impacts on its surrounding areas, but what's the alternative? All modern cities have highways and for the time being theyre a necessity for economic growth.

It is highly likely that this highway will become very congested in only a few years. There have been extensive studies done about building more highways to solve congestion. The result is that those highways also become congested, as more and more people get in the habit of driving.

@@vasilikonstan India is different. Just see NICE road story. People use it to bypass city. It barely has any traffic after 10 years. Mostly trucks bypass Banglore city. And people going out of Banglore use it for same. That’s it! Besides we like our mopeds more in the city. Barely any parking space, most residents just rent cars already these days. Even furniture is got rent in metro cities. Since they don’t have to move everything if they change residence. Indians are very economical. For us convenience and economics has to come together. Otherwise we won’t use it. Car companies have even started subscription plans for cars. New gen and even the older gen don’t want the hassle of owning it. It was the shit in the old days. It was more aspiration rather than much of a need for most. Family has one nice car and few mopeds. Mostly use mopeds. That’s how cities in India operate. Even super rich families are starting to adopt it. It just works.

urban highways don't work. US made this mistake in the past, and its no surprise that a proposal made my a American firm in the 60s is doing exactly the same mistake but in India. If you want to avoid congestion, public transit is the best means of doing so in urban centers. leave highways for connecting cities together and especially their suburbs and rural areas where density is too low for transit.

@@vasilikonstan -- Not really. City has parallel Metro and Train routes already existing and in construction. This is merely to divert in-city traffic from current overly congested roads and to facilitate faster entry-exit to and from Mumbai. If you were to travel from Mumbai to a vacation spot near Mumbai it takes around about 2 hours just to exit Mumbai. These projects are needed. I get your point though, had it purely been JUST this project in the works, it would've been a DOA project as road projects like these take into account current traffic situations while it takes them anywhere from 5-10years to complete but by that time the traffic increases to the point these projects fail, in terms of re-congestion. But that's not the case here as simultaneous work is being done for public transport as well, like Metros. This project has a 2 parallel Metro lines being constructed further to the east and inwards the city and its suburbs.

I can't believe Mumbai is destroying their coastline with a massive 8 lane freeway. This should be a giant linear park full of trees, walking paths, park benches, and other features for nature and the public. Make sure there's access to the water as well.

For god sake people, Mumbai already has 425 kms of suburban train network and it is building another 337 kms of metro in the next 10 years along 3 more planned high speed rail routes and one of them has already started construction. So Mumbai will have more commuter rail network within it's metro area than the most countries. Building two highways (coastal road and MTHL) won't turn a city with ~75% modal share for public transit into a car dependent one.

A new highway might induce a small percentage of people to switch from public transport to cars but most are locked into public transport because of sheer economics. The effect won't be the same as you might see in Europe or US where almost everyone owns a car.

If you build it they'll come. And the rest of the city wont be able to handle that.

Mumbai : makes new roads to tackle traffic People from other cities: *ah yes let's go to a overpopulated city to make it even worse*

I love these high high quality videos on engineering and construction. Major countries like India need large ambitious infrastructure projects. The 19th century was the British century, the 20th century was the American century, and the 21st century appears to be the Chinese century, India briefly passed the united Kingdom as the world's fifth largest economy before the effects of the coronavirus took hold. If India develops at the pace outlined in the this video, could we be looking at a Pax India century? ;-)

21st century has the possibility of being Indian as much as it could be Chinese. India's pace of infra development is 65km/day, fastest in the world. There's a possibility India regains it's position of the 17th century, as the most powerful economy in the world, despite the social and economic hurdles.

Biggest challenge of making any new road/highway in India is maintaining it, especially in Mumbai cause it rains a lot there. People often complain about poor maintenance of the roads

They should take notes from Japanese how they built that impressive underground reservoir which is humongous but liberated Tokyo from flooding issues.. However ,that took Japanese even 10 years or so , considering India's corruption chart and red tapism it might take double time.

Amazing work , thanks for the credit.

Video on Mumbai metro would be great, Great video this was 🎉👍

I think people are getting this project wrong. Yes, bigger highways don't solve traffic, but quality highways that serve the basic needs are required, because the existing road network is not very good. Also, a very massive metro construction is also underway (of about 200 km length), which will make it the 2nd largest metro network in India. And yes, a large suburban railway network already exists which is getting modernized.

The work is in going in full swing 😀

I have no knowledge of highway engineering, but from the standpoint of aesthetics, this is a terrible idea. It is the incarnation of sheer ugliness.

Induced demand shows the more infrastructure you build the more cars will use it. This is a temporary fix but if it stays under two billion dollars it's fairly good value.
