The fag end of Mumbai Coastal Road Project (MCRP) towards the northern side is set to have a “Bow String” bridge that will connect the high-speed corridor with the Bandra-Worli Sea Link (BWSL).
To ease vehicular movement and improve north-south connectivity, the BMC is constructing a 10.58-kilometre MCRP, which will originate near Princess Street flyover near Marine Drive and end at BWSL, through a series of underground tunnels, arterial roads, traffic interchange and flyovers.
As part of the original plan, the coastal road was supposed to be connected with the BWSL through an elevated arterial bridge that would be built on monopiles (pillars).
