The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) floated a tender for the construction of a 90-foot-long road in Chandivli on Monday, a day after residents held a hunger strike to ensure that the stretch is built. However, acquiring land is a long process and civic officials have refrained from setting a deadline for the work.
The stretch which is connected to Jogeshwari–Vikhroli Link Road (JVLR) was first conceptualised in a development plan 30 years ago.

As per the e-tender notice floated by the deputy chief engineer of the road department, the civic body invited an application to construct the DP road from Chandivli Farm Road to JVLR in cement concrete in L ward. The estimated cost of the work is Rs 27.78 crore and the contract period is 12 months, excluding the monsoon. The last date and time for submission of bids is September 20.
