During an inspection of the ongoing progress of the Coastal Road and the leaks that have emerged in the tunnel, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde assured that the entire Mumbai Coastal Road will be open by June 10. Guardian Minister of Mumbai Suburbs Mangalprabhat Lodha was also present during the visit.

“I have discussed this issue with experts from Scotland. They confirmed that there is no problem with the structure. The leakage is coming from the expansion joint and will be resolved soon. They will use polymer grouting injection technology to prevent further leakage. Although there are about 50 expansion joints, only two are leaking. I have instructed the officials to treat all the joints,” said Shinde.
