Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation’s (BMC) top ongoing infrastructure projects received a big boost in the civic body’s budget 2023-24, with highest allocations for them in comparison to past three years.
Even though Municipal Commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal did not announce any new infrastructure projects, while presenting the budget on Saturday, he committed to fast tracking existing ones, such as the Coastal Road Project, Goregaon-Mulund Link Road, waste-to-energy plant for the Deonar dumping ground, the sewage treatment plants that were recently inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to Mumbai, and change the face of the city’s infrastructure in the coming years.
