The new mumbai trans harbour link bridge, the longest sea link in India🌉🇮🇳. The Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL) is a 22km-long sea bridge being developed over the Mumbai Harbour in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Maharashtra, India. Home to more than 12 million people, the MMR region is heavily congested and overcrowded. With an increase in the number of people migrating to the city every year, residents and commuters in the city have been facing severe problems including housing shortages, lack of open spaces and civic amenities, and overloaded road and rail transportation infrastructure. Most parts of the city have reached a saturation point, with its peculiar geography imposing constraints for further expansion. The only location which will allow expansion is Navi Mumbai, which has already seen development in its northern half. The southern part of the area still has scope for development, offering 2,500ha of open land. Better connectivity between Mumbai and the mainland is essential to promote both urban and industrial development in the southern part. The Airoli and Vashi bridges are currently the two road links that connect Mumbai and Navi Mumbai. The bridges, however, are expected to reach saturation and will not support future traffic growth. The new link has, therefore, become a necessity to meet the traffic growth. It will reduce the distance and travel time between the two areas and help in the development of the rest of Navi Mumbai. A comprehensive transportation study conducted by MMRDA suggested that MTHL would be an efficient solution to address accommodation and traffic problems in Mumbai. Article: roadtraffuctechnology.
