Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Shri Devendra Fadnavis inaugurated two major road-over-bridges (ROBs) on May 14 - a 273-crore cable-stayed Reay Road ROB in Mumbai and another in Titwala. These projects are designed to improve east-west connectivity and ease traffic congestion in high-density suburban areas. The Reay Road ROB is the first cable-stayed overbridge in suburban Mumbai, while the Titwala bridge connects Ambivli to Kalyan and serves over 25,000 daily rail passengers. Funded by MahaRail and the state government, both bridges aim to reduce commute times and traffic jams, with better infrastructure for vehicles and pedestrians during peak hours.
Two important road-over-bridges (ROBs) were opened by Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Shri Devendra Fadnavis on May 14 - one at Reay Road in Mumbai and another at Titwala. These projects are expected to improve road and rail connectivity in busy suburban areas and ease the pressure on traffic. Advertisement
The Reay Road ROB, built at a cost of INR 273 crore, is the first cable-stayed overbridge in Mumbai's suburbs. It was inaugurated physically by Fadnavis. Meanwhile, he also inaugurated the Titwala ROB virtually. The Reay Road bridge connects areas between the Harbour Line and Dockyard Road stations, offering much-needed relief to residents and easing movement across Mumbai's east-west corridor.
Built by MahaRail for the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), the Reay Road bridge includes LED lighting, upgraded drainage systems, and better infrastructure for pedestrians and vehicles.
The Titwala ROB, funded by MahaRail, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), and the state government, will serve as a crucial link between Ambivli and Kalyan. The 820-meter bridge, built at a cost of INR 100 crore, connects the Titwala railway station to Ganesh Mandir and other parts of the town. It is expected to benefit over 25,000 rail commuters daily.
Both ROBs are expected to reduce travel time and decongest key traffic routes during peak hours. Service roads and footpaths are included in the designs to make commuting safer for pedestrians. Authorities say that these new bridges will offer smoother travel, especially during monsoon and rush hours, marking an important step toward improving suburban infrastructure.
