India's longest sea bridge at 21.8 km — connecting Sewri (Mumbai) to Nhava Sheva (Navi Mumbai), reducing travel time from 2 hours to just 20–30 minutes. Opened January 2024.
The Mumbai Trans Harbour Link is India's longest sea bridge, developed by MMRDA. It connects Mumbai (Sewri) directly with Navi Mumbai (Nhava Sheva / Uran), playing a crucial role in improving connectivity to Navi Mumbai International Airport, JNPT Port and the upcoming development regions of Raigad district — and driving significant land appreciation across the 3rd Mumbai zone.

The Atal Setu is one of the most important infrastructure projects in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. Developed by MMRDA, it has already driven significant land appreciation in surrounding areas and accelerated 3rd Mumbai development.
From concept to completion — the journey of India's longest sea bridge
The concept of a sea link connecting Mumbai and Navi Mumbai was first proposed to address growing congestion across the harbour.
Detailed project planning and feasibility studies began under MMRDA oversight.
Construction of the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link officially started, with Japanese funding and engineering expertise.
Bridge structure and sea spans completed. Advanced wind monitoring, seismic-resistant design and marine engineering materials installed.
The bridge was inaugurated on 12 January 2024 and opened for public use — reducing travel time between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai from 2–2.5 hours to 20–30 minutes.
A modern engineering achievement with direct links to the Airport and JNPT
The MTHL is a modern engineering achievement designed to handle large traffic volumes while ensuring long-term structural stability in a challenging marine environment.
21.8 km total — India's longest sea bridge
Six-lane expressway with emergency lanes
Advanced wind monitoring systems
Seismic resistant — up to magnitude 8.5
High durability marine engineering materials
Mangrove protection and noise barrier systems
One of the biggest advantages of MTHL is its direct connectivity to Navi Mumbai International Airport. The bridge connects to NH-348A, providing a fast route from South Mumbai to the airport corridor.
How Atal Setu has transformed commuting between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai
This connectivity transformation has directly driven 30–40% land appreciation in surrounding areas — Ulwe, Dronagiri, Chirner, Pushpak Nagar and Vasheni.
Access points and current toll structure for the Atal Setu
The bridge includes three major interchanges providing access to the surrounding road network and key destinations.
The Chirle interchange provides connectivity to:
Current approximate toll rates for the Atal Setu. Monthly passes and discounted options are available for regular commuters.
| Vehicle Type | Approx. Toll |
|---|---|
| Car / Jeep | ₹250 |
| Light Commercial Vehicle | ₹400 |
| Truck / Bus | ₹830 |
How MTHL is reshaping land values and driving investment across the region
Our land parcels are strategically positioned to directly benefit from MTHL connectivity — in Ulwe, Dronagiri, Chirner and surrounding zones that are seeing the strongest appreciation.
MTHL has already driven 30–40% land appreciation in nearby areas. Key growth locations include Ulwe, Dronagiri, Pushpak Nagar, Chirner and Vasheni — all benefiting from improved Mumbai connectivity.
With the bridge already operational since January 2024, appreciation is actively building. Investing now — before it fully factors into land pricing — provides the strongest return potential.
