The MMRDA comprises 17 members and is chaired by the Minister for Urban Development in
Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis (who is also the current Chief Minister of Maharashtra).[2]
It is also the richest state owned organisations in India. On the similar lines to this,
recently Government of Maharashtra has announced to
establish PMRDAand NMRDA for Pune and Nasik respectively.
Regional Plan
MMRDA was established for implementation of the Regional Plan and for Planning,
Development and Co-ordination of Development within MMR. Mumbai Metropolitan Region
was delineated and the first Regional Plan for Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) was
sanctioned in 1973. After considering various planning aspects, the Authority prepared the
revised Regional Plan for the period 1996-2011 which was sanctioned by the State
Government on 23rd September, 1999 and it came into force with effect from 1st December,
1999. Implementation of the Regional Plan for MMR (1996-2011) is in progress. As per
Metropolitan Planning Committee (MPC) Act, 1999, revision of Regional Plan will be carried
out by the MPC and MMRDA will assist it in the task.
Who We Are
Mumbai Metropolitan Development Act of 1974 created the Mumbai Metropolitan Region
Development Authority (MMRDA) in January 26, 1975.
MMRDA aims to establish MMR as an economic destination by providing infrastructures,
buildings and architectures to enhance the quality of living in the area. Using the frame work
of growth of MMR, MMRDA plans, promotes, implements and finances different centers,
projects and infrastructures.
Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority is responsible for:
Preventing any activity that has negative effect on the further development of the
Region
MMRDA monitors, contributes and plans projects that can affect the overall improvement in
various sectors such as transportation, water and drainage system and preservation of the
environment in the city.
With a kitty of about Rs15,000 crore, the Mumbai Metropolitan Regional Development
Authority (MMRDA) may be considered the richest planning body in the country. But with an
investment of Rs1.14 lakh crore required to implement its 16 premier infrastructure projects,
the authority is wooing worldwide investors to come to its rescue.
Last week, MMRDA chief Ratnakar Gaikwad appealed to a world conference of architects,
urban planners and investors being held in the city to pledge investments for the
metropolitan region. At the conference, organised by the Chicago-based Council on Tall
Buildings and Urban Habitats along with the Remaking of Mumbai Foundation (RoMF),
Gaikwad showcased the authoritys various projects, such as the 145-km metro corridor, the
100-km monorail, the iconic tower, innovation park, rental housing, the multi-modal corridor,
and the funicular railway at Matheran. He said that these projects can set the city, along
with the entire region, on a path of rapid growth.
While the metro and the monorail will act as capillaries to Mumbais transport, the multimodal corridor will establish a 140-km link between Virar and Alibaug. It will have eight lanes
for vehicles, along with dedicated lanes for buses and a metro track right in the median,
said Gaikwad.
The public-private partnership model applied to the first two metro lines is an example for
other states to follow. It emphasises the fact that big projects need no longer linger for the
want of funds, said Gaikwad.
Strategy for MMR up to 2031. The final report was submitted in July, 2008. One of the major
recommendations of TRANSFORM is the development of Multi Modal Corridor in MMR to
take care of the varied travel demands of the region for the horizon period up to 2031. One
such corridor is planned from Virar to Alibaug.
M/s. Louis Berger Group Inc. has been appointed for the preparation of Techno-Economic
and Financial Viability Study which began in August, 2010.
This 126 km long Virar-Alibuag Multi Modal Corridor will connect NH-8, Bhiwandi bypass,
NH-3, NH-4 and NH-4B, Mumbai-Pune Expressway, NH-17, etc. Out of this 126 km corridor,
79 km long Virar (Navghar) to Chirner (JNPT) corridor is financially feasible and has been
approved by the Authority in its meeting held on 6th March, 2012.
The Multi Modal Corridor will be a crucial step towards development, strengthening and
creating job opportunities in seven growth centers in MMR such as Virar, Bhiwandi, Kalyan,
Dombivali, Panvel, Taloja and Uran. The Corridor will also be useful for the development of
Navi Mumbai International Airport, JNPT Port, MTHL and Dedicated Freight Corridor. This
Corridor will carry all the traffic from JNPT towards Navi Mumbai and Thane outside the city
and will help reduce traffic congestion within the city. The travel time between Virar to
Alibaug required today will also be reduced by 50%.

region. This body undertook construction of residential buildings under various housing
schemes for different sections of the society. The allotment and maintenance of these
buildings was
being looked after by it.On the re-organization of the State, the Vidharbha Housing Board
was established in the year 1960 as a successor body to the erstwhile Madhya Pradesh
Housing Board. Its functions were similar to those of the Maharashtra Housing Board, except
that it also advanced loan to co-operative housing societies, institutions and local authorities
for the construction of houses.
The Bombay Buildings Repairs and Reconstruction Board was constituted in 1971. It was
created to deal with the problems faced by tenants residing in dilapidated buildings in the
Island City of Bombay and undertook its structural repairs and reconstruction, so as to make
them structurally sound and safe for habitation.
The Maharashtra Slum Improvement Board was constituted in 1974, with intention to
provide basic amenities, such as water taps, drainage, pathways, latrines and streetlights
etc. in slums. To begin with, its activities were confined to the Mumbai City and Mumbai
Suburban Districts. These activities were later extended to the other parts of the State. The
Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) has been established by the
Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Act, 1976. It came into existence on 5th
December 1977. The erstwhile Mumbai Housing and Area Development Board was
restructured by a Government Resolution dated 5.11.1992 and split into three separate
Boards viz. Mumbai Housing and Area Development Board, Mumbai Building Repairs and
Reconstruction Board and Mumbai Slum Improvement Board Under the Government
Resolution No. 2679/B, dated 22.7.1992. At present MHADA is cordinating and controlling

The City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra (CIDCO; is a city planning
organization created by the Government of Maharashtra. CIDCO was formed on 17 March
1970 under the Indian Companies Act of 1956. Its purpose at the time of its creation was to
develop a satellite town to Mumbai, Maharashtra India to ease traffic congestion in the city
and provide open spaces, playing fields, housing and industrial sites outside the city.
Besides Mumbai, CIDCO operates successfully in Aurangabad, Nashik, Latur and Nanded in
Maharashtra state. Some very successful projects have been undertaken by CIDCO in
Aurangabad. Aurangabad city's localities are named as Neighbourhood-One (N-1),
Neighbourhood-Two (N-2) through N-12. The Aurangabad division has now been handed
over to the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation.
A new development in Aurangabad district is in Waluj. It is 12 km southwest
