Mumbai’s $290M Bid to Revamp Mithi River

Mumbai’s civic body, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), has floated a $290 million Design-Build-Operate Tender (DBOT) for Package-III of the Mithi River Development and Pollution Control Project. This phase aims to curb pollution and enhance infrastructure along the river stretch from CST Bridge to Mahim Causeway, including Vakola River.

The project includes sewer line work (8.3 km), retaining walls (7 km), service roads (6 km), 25 interceptors, a sewage pumping station, and gate pumps at 25 locations. Additionally, it focuses on riverbank beautification with promenades, improving the city’s water management and urban aesthetics.

BMC initiated the cleanup strategy in 2017, dividing it into four packages. Package-I was completed, while work on Packages-II and IV is ongoing. The overall plan aims to divert 285 MLD of sewage from flowing into the river and redirect it to Mumbai’s sewer system.

Package-III is expected to play a crucial role in flood mitigation and pollution control, strengthening Mumbai’s environmental resilience while enhancing public spaces.
