The Maharashtra Coastal Zone Management Authority (MCZMA) cleared the project in its last meeting, but the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is awaiting finalisation of the minutes. There is likely to be a meeting by the end of this month after which the work can begin.

The elevated road will go over the Mahim Nature Park, LBS Marg, cross railway lines half a km north of Sion station and over the Chunabhatti railway crossing.

The connector will enable commuters from the eastern suburbs to travel to BKC within five minutes. The road will also decongest the narrow Sion-Dharavi link road.

MMRDA has applied for clearance from the Central Railway for constructing over railway tracks and has also planned an internal connector at Chunabhatti to close the railway crossing there.
