While the state government is upbeat about the coastal road project, after it received a go-ahead from the Ministry of Environment and Forests, the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) is unsure about the status of the Bandra-Versova Sea Link.

The coastal road project, touted to connect Nariman Point and Kandivli, began gathering steam in 2011 as the Shiv Sena, BJP and Congress all showed much enthusiasm in executing it. Due to this, MSRDC’s Worli-Haji Ali Sea Link was put on the back burner. Nearly two years ago, the MSRDC had said it would construct the Bandra-Versova Sea Link.
