Bandra Versova Sea Link map, route and status

As of October 2026, the latest published progress figure for the sea link is from May 2026: about 31 percent of the work was complete, against a scheduled 35.84 percent. The completion target remains May 2028, and the revised project cost is Rs 18,120.96 crore.

In February 2026 the project was about 30 percent complete. Foundation work stood at about 40 percent, with roughly 1,200 of the 3,000 required piles installed and 3,000 of the 14,000 deck segments cast. The Bandra casting yard has to be vacated for a private development, which leaves the Malad yard for segment casting.

The deadline has already moved several times: the 2021 target was 2025. For buyers, the gap between scheduled and actual progress matters more than the headline date. Do not pay a premium that assumes the sea link opens before May 2028 unless MSRDC reports faster progress.

The Bandra Versova Sea Link runs about 900 metres offshore, from the Bandra end of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link to Nana Nani Park in Versova. The total length, including connectors, is 17.17 km. Four connectors bring traffic on and off the sea link, and a fifth, the Bandra Fort connector, has been sanctioned.

For Bandra sea link directions today, note that only the Bandra-Worli Sea Link is open; the Versova extension is still under construction. When it opens, travel between Bandra and Versova is expected to fall from about 45 minutes to 10 to 15 minutes. Use the connector table to check which exit will serve a property: proximity to the main bridge matters less than distance to the nearest connector.

The Bandra Versova Sea Link is the middle piece of a coastal road chain along Mumbai's western shore, which is why it is often called the Bandra Versova coastal road. The chain has four parts.

In the south, the coastal road now joins the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, and the Bandra Versova Sea Link starts at the Bandra end of that bridge. In the north, package A of the Versova-Dahisar coastal road connects to the sea link interchange at Versova and runs about 4.5 km to Bangur Nagar in Goregaon.

For coastal road Bandra to Versova travel, the sea link is the missing piece. Until it opens, the coastal road ends at the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, and traffic to Juhu and Versova still uses city roads.

The table below maps the documented CRZ constraints at each of the four VBSL connector locations, based on official clearance conditions and court proceedings.

The CRZ clearance for VBSL originally granted by MoEF expired in January 2023 and was renewed in May 2023, with the Ministry of Environment appointing the Zoological Survey of India to monitor marine life impact and IISER Pune to conserve mangroves during construction. Any land within the CRZ-II zone near the Juhu connector that a broker describes as "development-ready" must be verified against the MCZMA's notified HTL boundary and the existing road alignment. The HC ruling makes clear: seaward of the road is not buildable, period.

The VBSL's four connector exits each activate a different micro-market, and the price trajectories are already diverging. Average capital values in Versova fell to Rs 24,458 per sq ft in 2019, climbed to Rs 40,831 by 2024, hit Rs 49,458 in 2025, and touched Rs 55,727 in early 2026, a 128 percent increase over seven years. Juhu is further along in pricing: sea-facing apartments exceed Rs 1 lakh per sq ft, with average rates between Rs 60,000 and Rs 70,000 per sq ft.

The table below shows each connector exit, its current property rate range, and what the VBSL specifically adds to each location.

Juhu is the most misread sub-market along this corridor. Because average rates already exceed Rs 60,000 per sq ft, buyers assume the VBSL upside is fully baked in. It is not, for one specific reason: the Juhu Koliwada connector interchange at Juhu Tara Road creates a brand-new point of road entry that does not exist today. When it opens, properties within 500 metres of that interchange will have a price inflection point that is not yet in current pricing. That is the specific opportunity the general market is missing.
