Work on the new elevated link that connects the LBS Marg flyover in Kurla to the BKC flyover is progressing quickly. Officials stated that the project had made about 85 percent progress. The link may be made public next month, considerably ahead of the scheduled date of December 2026.

The project was approved in November 2023 and is valued almost Rs 29.8 crore. Even if the paperwork indicates a lengthy schedule, the civic body has been attempting to complete the work much sooner. The internal objective is December 20, 2025. They hope to minimize traffic congestion on this popular road that connects the city’s east and west sides.

Why the Connector Matters

The new structure measures 260 meters long and 5.8 meters wide. It has one traffic lane and enough area for two-wheelers to move safely. Currently, both flyovers are distinct, resulting in a sluggish spot where vehicles pile up. The link will eliminate this interruption, giving traffic a straight route from BKC to Ghatkopar and the LBS Marg route.

According to a senior engineer with the civic council, the link will improve traffic flow and reduce travel time for those who use these roads on a daily basis. Many vehicles that are currently stopped near the flyover end will now proceed without stopping.

Work Speeding Up on Site

Teams on the ground have worked extra hours to meet the increased target. Officials said they want the connector completed as soon as possible so that the neighborhood can be relieved of the ongoing traffic congestion. Finishing the project ahead of schedule can also help relieve pressure when other major projects in the region begin.

Once operational, the link is projected to transform thousands of people’s daily commutes. It will support consistent traffic and benefit both residents and office workers who rely on this route.
