The Western Freeway is a transportation infrastructure project in Mumbai, India that envisions the construction of multiple bridges over the Arabian Sea to reduce traffic-congestion between the Western Suburbs and the island city. The freeway will stretch from Marine Drive in South Mumbai to Kandivli in the north, a distance of 29 km. The first phase of the project, known as the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, was completed in June 2009, and links Bandra in the north and Worli in the south with a cable stayed bridge spanning the Mahim Bay. This development has relieved the congestion on the Mahim Causeway, which until then had been the only road between the Western Suburbs and South Mumbai on the western sea front. The fate of next segments is unclear. An alternative to the Western Freeway is the Coastal Freeway, a proposed 35.6 km road from Manora MLA Hostel at Nariman Point to Kandivali ==Haji Ali-Nariman Point Sea Link== This section would have been an extension of the sea-link from Haji Ali to Priyadarshini Park, and onward to Malabar Hill. The section was sub-divided into the following: *Coastal road from north of Princess Street flyover. It would be a cut-and-cover tunnel which would connect to a bored tunnel under Malabar Hill. The tunnel will exit Napean Sea Road beyond Priyadarshini Park. *From Priyadarshini Park till Mahalaxmi Temple. The committee has recommended a coastal road through reclamation. *A coastal road, at Haji Ali Bay, through reclamation for an 8-lane road. *A connector bridge running around the Haji Ali Dargah. This will connect the road to the north end of the Haji Ali Bay till the Baroda Palace Point. On 16 April 2013, Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan told the state Assembly that the Nariman Point–Haji Ali sea link was "impractical". Chavan stated, "As far as the sea link is concerned, the consultant had ruled out the possibility of taking it further than Haji Ali. We will look at other alternatives." Chavan also said that he would promote a coastal road as an alternative to the sea link. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Western Freeway (Mumbai)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
