The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has decided to set up a special disaster control room for the Worli to Nariman Point Coastal Road. The control room will have dedicated staff who will keep a close eye on the traffic. Chief Engineer of the Coastal Road project M M Swami told mid-day that the Coastal Road will have a dedicated control room separate from the current civic disaster control room.

After the completion of the project, the work of setting up the control room will start. “We will set up a temporary control room till the permanent control room is ready. There will be dedicated staff for the control room,” Swami added. This team will keep watch on coastal road movement, especially in the tunnel, Swami added.
