When I look forword the picture of mumbai in 2020 is very much horible if there is continued unplanned growth of mumbai like now.
Just take example of suburban railway. It is so called life line of mumbai.Why should not be? When you want to travel from distant suburb like Mulund or Borivali,it takes minimum 1.30 to 2 hours to travel to C.S.T. or Churchgate if there is moderate traffic.Even if we go by any of the two expresss highways.We have to travel by local trains if we want to cut travel time,even if we bare luxurious car.This is situation of suburb,not to mention anything about extended suburb like kalyan,where there is no direct roadway at all. Kalyan is totally isolated from Mumbai if we exclude the cental railway suburban transport. Want to mention that in the flood of 26th July,the people of Dombivali-Kalyan suffered a lot.Now state government is planning to connect Thane-Dombivali-Kalyan by roadway parallel to railway track.Better late than never-but not to be such late that we have to suffer another 26th July.
