During the meeting, Thane Municipal Commissioner Saurabh Rao highlighted the Thane Municipal Corporation's (TMC) commitment to addressing challenges such as land acquisition, environmental approvals, and tree-related concerns.

According to a release from the civic body, the session focused on the progress of several projects, including the integration of Ghodbunder Road with the service road, the Anand Nagar to Saket elevated road, the Balkum to Gaimukh coastal road, the Gaimukh to Payegaon creek bridge, the Kasarvadavali to Kharbav creek bridge, the Kolshet to Kalher creek bridge, and the Thane-Borivali underpass/tunnel.

The officials reviewed key issues such as land acquisition, tree transplantation, environmental clearances, and the relocation of water and sewage channels.
