MHADA selected Adani Properties Private Limited as the highest bidder for Adarsh Nagar in Worli and Bandra Reclamation; a consortium led by JSW Steel won SVP Nagar in Andheri West. The consortium comprises Hanura Realty, a JSW Steel subsidiary, Chandak Realtors, Premsagar Infra Realty and Vantier Realty.

The three cluster redevelopment areas total 206.49 acres: SVP Nagar, 73.89 acres; Bandra Reclamation, 98.27 acres; and Adarsh Nagar, 34.33 acres. MHADA floated bids on April 8 and opened technical submissions on May 20. Bid approvals will go to a high-powered committee, then to the state government for final approval. Resident groups and housing societies challenging the tender in the Bombay High Court are due for a hearing on June 9. Eligible residents will receive transit rent during redevelopment and a maintenance corpus.

Lodha Developers and JSW Realty & Infrastructure also bid for Bandra Reclamation and Adarsh Nagar. SVP Nagar bidders included Reliance 4IR Realty Development, Adani Properties and Hanura Realty.

Residents of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel (SVP) Nagar, a large MHADA colony in Andheri West, are uncertain about their homes after MHADA said it would redevelop the entire cluster.

On July 7, 2025, MHADA Vice-President and CEO Sanjeev Jaiswal wrote to the state housing department proposing redevelopment through an appointed construction and development agency. He said it should follow the model used at Motilal Nagar-1, 2 and 3, Abhyudaya Nagar Kalachowkie, Bandra Reclamation and Adarsh Nagar Worli, under Regulation 33(9) of the Development Control and Promotion Rules. The move has caused confusion as the government continues to promote self-redevelopment.

BMC expects the 206-metre flyover linking Yari Road and Lokhandwala Back Road in Andheri West to be ready by December 2027. Additional municipal commissioner (projects) Abhijit Bangar inspected the site near Amarnath Tower on Monday and directed officials to meet the deadline.

The bridge will support an 18.3-metre-wide Development Plan road on either side of Kavthe Creek. It comprises a 110-metre main bridge and approach roads measuring 40 metres on the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Nagar side and 56 metres near Ama. The link will connect Yari Road, Panch Marg and Versova with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Nagar, Lokhandwala Complex and Samarth Nagar. Travel time is expected to fall from 30 minutes to 10 minutes, easing traffic.

Forty-two families in Siddharth Nagar, Andheri West, have been ordered to vacate within 15 days for the bridge connecting Yari Road and Lokhandwala. The September 26 notice from the Mumbai suburban district collector’s office calls their homes unauthorised structures; non-compliance may lead to forcible demolition, with costs recovered as land revenue. The BMC invoked Section 50(3) of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966, under a 2008 state circular, rather than the Slum Rehabilitation Act, 1995. A July 24 inspection found 41 huts and a temple had re-emerged on land cleared in 2011. Residents say they have lived there since 1993 and received no rehabilitation; they say 800 huts are in Siddharth Nagar, but 42 are affected.

The 393-metre bridge over Kavathe Creek will link Yari Road and Versova with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Nagar, Lokhandwala Complex and Samarth Nagar. It includes a 110-metre single-span steel arch, a 166-metre Yari Road approach and a 117-metre Lokhandwala approach. Intended to ease congestion and improve east-west connectivity, it is expected to cut Versova–Lokhandwala travel time from 30 to 10 minutes and provide an alternative route with the upcoming Versova–Bandra Sea Link. The BMC has Union environment ministry approval to cross 0.21 hectares of mangrove forest.
