The 12.2-km GMLR will connect the Western Express Highway at Goregaon with the Eastern Express Highway at Mulund, reducing travel time from 75 to about 25 minutes. The Rs 16,000-crore project, being implemented in four phases, will include tunnels, bridges, interchanges, and flyovers to provide seamless east–west connectivity across Mumbai.

Preparations for tunnel excavation

Under Phase 3 of the project, excavation of underground tunnels using a Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) is set to begin in June 2026. Ahead of this, a launching shaft at Amar Nagar will be constructed, requiring land at the site.

Project-affected residents from Amar Nagar will be rehabilitated at Kanjur (West), where around 300 sq ft housing units are being built across seven buildings for eligible families.

Housing facilities for project-affected families

"Each 300 sq ft flat will include a living room, bedroom, and attached bathroom, with the housing complex featuring amenities like a community hall, library, gym, public health centre, and sewage treatment plant," said a senior official.

Of the seven buildings for PAPs, two are complete, and the remaining five are expected within three months. Unsold flats will be allotted via lottery, an official added.
