Mumbai's Bandra-Worli Sealink to be toll free?

August 02, 2016 09:36

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation is likely to take over the Bandra-Worli sea link, effectively making it toll free seven years after it was constructed, as part of the arrangement for a coastal freeway from South Mumbai to Bandra.

However, while motorists may save toll on the sea link, the proposed coastal road will be a freeway only till Bandra, beyond which users will have to pay a toll up to Versova.

The state government is planning to revive the costly Bandra-Versova sea link project, which the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation will build as part of the coastal road and charge a toll on it.
