Mumbai Coastal Road Adds Two New Pedestrian Underpasses
Mumbai's Coastal Road now has two more safe paths for people to walk under!
These underpasses are like tunnels that help people cross the busy road without having to walk on the same level as the cars.
One is near Aakruti Parking Building, and the other is on Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan Road.
The Coastal Road project is meant to make it easier and faster to get around the city, and these new underpasses add to that goal.
This project will also reduce the time it takes to get around in Mumbai, with hopes of reducing the commute by a lot.
Two new pedestrian underpasses have opened on Mumbai Coastal Road.
The underpasses are located at the Aakruti Parking Building and Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan Road.
The Coastal Road project aims to improve connectivity and reduce traffic.
Phase 1 of the Coastal Road opened in March 2024.
The project may reduce travel time significantly.
