New Mode Of Commute For Mumbaikars- Waterways

In News
Mumbai, being the financial capital of India, is
the hub of logistics, warehousing and supplies
goods as well as commodities to other parts of
India and Major ports. The city is infamous for
the congested roads as well as the
traffic-related woes, major parts of this are
basically caused by heavy vehicles like lorries,
container trucks, etc. The situation, however,
might change if center's plan to carve in new sea
routes takes shape. The trucks would enter the
city roads and highways no more. Here is all that
makes it a fresh new idea. The plan Presently the
sea route between Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust and
Vasai-Virar Creek is proposed for transportation
of goods. Also, this would complement by making
use of sea route for the supply of stock to
Island City through Mazgaon port. For fulfilling
this, there are two plans that have been
proposed. The first plan is to acquire over 350
acres of salt pa land near Vasai-Virar Creek that
would be converted into the depot for trucks to
unload the goods which can be ferried to
Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust through sea route to
Mazgaon. The goods can be unloaded as well as
stored at the warehouses at Mumbai Port Trust and
supplied to numerous locations across
Mumbai. Present scenario The congestion at the
peak hour due to the container truck is
unavoidable along the Eastern and Western Express
Highway that basically connects the suburban
Mumbai with South Mumbai areas as well as Mazgaon
Port. The situation recently was so grim that the
traffic police of Mumbai banned the entry of all
such trucks during the peak hours to avoid any
traffic jams. Massive traffic jams on the express
highway have become a common sight since the
working on Metro route Dahisar to Andheri has
begun. Also, the movement of vehicular is at
times disrupted on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway due
to the container trucks. How will this impact the
Mumbaikars? The proposed plan will bring in the
relief for the commuters who basically travel
during the peak hours through roads. The
container trucks create 40 of the total traffic
jams and cause traffic and pollution on similar
key arterial roads of the main city and the
suburban as well. Apart from this, making use of
the sea routes will decrease the traffic jams on
roads, increase road life and reduce pollution.
The proposed plan will bring in the complete
transport system to water as well as would save
the cost and increase the profit margins on the
commodities and goods.
