Factors for Growth in the Past

What used to be sprawling paddy fields and abandoned industrial plots have recently been converted into mass housing projects, with high-rise apartments being developed by the construction moghuls such as Lodha and Hiranandani.

The scenic Ghodbunder Road, in conjunction with growing residential, commercial, retail and infrastructural development has led to a massive population growth in this area, with the size of the district increasing tenfold in recent times. As a result, a large number of residential properties in Ghodbunder Road are available for sale.

Factors for Growth in the Future

The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has grand plans for the future of Ghodbunder Road. They plan on widening the service roads off GB, thus ensuring smoother movement of traffic. They also plan on implementing a Slum Redevelopment Scheme (SRD) to better the slums in the area.

To reduce the incidence of minor injuries and fatal accidents that occur frequently in this area due to the busy roads and incessant traffic, Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has approved the construction of ten foot-over-bridges (FoBs) with escalators, to ensure safety of walking commuters.

Major Challenges

Ghodbunder Road consists of four simultaneously operating flyovers, which has led to a massive increase in traffic, posing a problem to residents. Apart from congested roads, heavy traffic has given rise to intensification in dust and noise pollution.

Fluctuations in electricity accompanied by long power cuts, irregular water supply due to choked pipes, improper garbage collection leading to unhygienic surroundings, and petty crimes, continue to vex the residents.
