- Projects within the Coastal Regulation Zone
Along the creek side of Ghodbunder Road, the coastal zone can reach further inland than a plot's frontage suggests. The CRZ Notification, 2019 applies along tidal creeks and their branches as far as seawater reaches, so a nala that fills with the tide twice a day can carry a regulated strip deep into a layout. The approved coastal zone management plan and a fresh high tide line survey decide where. We have both done before layout planning, so buildings, roads and the STP sit outside the lines from the start.
Ghodbunder Road runs north-west from Majiwada to Gaimukh, where it climbs through the ghat towards Mira-Bhayandar and the Western Express Highway. For much of its length the hills of Sanjay Gandhi National Park rise on one side, and the land falls away on the other towards the creek and its mangroves. Between the two, farmland and village land have become towers and gated townships, Manpada, Waghbil and Owale are now names of residential neighbourhoods as much as villages. The Metro Line 4 viaduct runs along the road, and service roads, flyovers and widening have followed it. The corridor is still filling in.

CRZ Clearance in Ghodbunder Road: common questions.
01Part of our plot shows mangroves on the survey map but there are none on the ground. Does that still matter?
It may. Mangroves shown in government records or on the approved coastal plan are taken seriously even where they have since been damaged or cleared, and clearing them is itself an offence. We compare the survey map, the coastal plan, satellite imagery across years and the site, and tell you plainly what the record is likely to hold you to.
02How long does crz clearance take in Ghodbunder Road?
On timing: 4–8 months, subject to mapping, scrutiny & MCZMA schedule. A realistic Ghodbunder Road schedule is set once the site and the scope have been read, and the work is carried through to the outcome by the same named people.
