CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
The Maharashtra rail infrastructure development corporation ltd has taken up a rebuilding of
existing rail over bridge in Mumbai at Tilak Road Bridge. Tilak Bridge is a Rail-over-bridge
(ROB) for vehicular movement over Western and Central Railway tracks in Dadar. Built in
1923, Lokmanya Tilak bridge (once referred by locals as Kingsway bridge as it was extended to
Kingsway road which was renamed Ambedkar road) is one of the oldest bridges in Mumbai and
connects Dadar east (Khodadad Circle) with Dadar west and even more so, between east and
west Mumbai. This is an important route for buses and other motorists for travelling from
the Western Suburbs to the Central Suburbs and vice-versa. This rail-over bridge becomes even
more critical connect for devotees during Ganesh Visarjan when Ganesh idols across eastern side
of Mumbai are brought to Dadar Chowpatty for the immersion (visarjan). Apart from this bridge,
there are few pedestrian rail-over bridges that keeps the crowd moving on foot from east and
west. This bridge is almost 100-year-old hence it is reconstructed with future lane widening and
increase span, height of bridge as per requirement.

Vehicular traffic of Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Road and Veer Kotwal Udyan Chowk are facing
acute traffic problem at railway crossing bridge. Vehicular traffic on roads has grown at an
unmanageable rate over the years making travel chaotic, tiring, and time consuming and unsafe.
It is at these junctions where traffic from different directions converge and cause traffic
congestion and also accidents. The reason for this traffic congestion is overcrowding at junctions
due to the increasing density of traffic from all directions. In order to solve this traffic problem,
planning and reconstructing a Flyover Bridge over railway crossing may be a variable option. A
ROB can be reconstructed which is cost-effective, minimum demolition and safe and fast
movement of vehicle so that of traffic problem at railway crossing of Tilak Road Bridge can be
solved.

and typical cross-sections also have also discussed.
We have carried out feasibility study of alignment for three different options as following.
A) Feasibility of Proposed Cable-Stay Bridge in two tiers, second over the existing ROB
and the first at about the same level of existing ROB.
B) Feasibility of Proposed Cable-Stay Bridge parallel to the existing ROB, in this case
designer has to consider the minimum or nil land acquisition and suitable working
space availability without disturbing the existing structures, traffic etc.
C) Feasibility of Proposed Cable-Stay Bridge on the same location after dismantling the
existing ROB.

A) Feasibility of Proposed Cable-Stay bridge in two tiers, second over the existing ROB
and the first at about the same level of existing ROB
1) This option will provide through & through traffic on proposed bridge.
2) The proposed alignment has two options at each approach arrangement on East and West
of ROB as follows:
i) Start / End of proposed approach on Veer Kotwal Udyan Chowk (West) side which
will have up ramp (Fig.4.1) on N C Kelkar road from Sena Bhavan Junction and
down ramp with two options
a) Option 1, down ramp (Fig.4.2) on N C Kelkar road towards Kabutar khana Circle
up to Axis bank at Bhavani Shankar Road.
b) Option 2, down ramp (Fig.4.3) on N C Kelkar road towards Shree Hanuman
Mandir up to Aradhana Bhuvan Jain Temple at S K Bole road.
ii) Start / End on Dadar TT Circle (East) side parallel to Dadar TT flyover, which will
have up ramp on Eastern Express Highway (EEH) from Dadar Head Post Office and
down ramp on Express Highway (EEH) to Dattray Shankar Nandkarni Chowk. The
option of crossing Dadar TT flyover on EEH side is not feasible because the DP
width available on Tilak Road is approximately 10m.
3) In this alignment, the required vertical clearance of Second tier ROB is approximately
13.5m above rail top level at Railway Portion and 5.5m on junctions of N C Kelkar road
and Eastern Express Highway. The First tier level of ROB will be at same level of
existing ROB or as minimum vertical criteria given as the railway standard.

6) Geometry alignment & viaduct pier at approaches:
For up and down ramp at N C Kelkar road, Bhavani Shankar road and S K Bole road, the
available DP width is 27.45m (including footpath). The Proposed Bridge is of 2+2 lane
having total carriageway width of 19.50m and for up and down ramp shall be of 2 lane,
each having total width of 8.0m. The existing N C Kelkar road, Bhavani Shankar road and
S K Bole road are approximately of 21m, 19m and 21.5m respectively, which is of 2+2
lane with median and footpath on both sides of the road. For proposed up and down ramp,
approaches of 2 lane with width of 8.0m on this roads will entirely occupy the existing
road width, hence the traffic movement on existing roads will get obstructed, as only 1 lane
width shall be available of service road on either side of N C. Kelkar road, Bhavani
Shankar road and S K Bole road i.e. with footpath. Hence, due to in-adequate availability
of land / space for construction of structures such as piers & approach it will block the
traffic, as the traffic load is higher on this road so the traffic congestion will increase more
on service roads. In addition, the alignment passing through Shree Hanuman Mandir
towards Aradhana Bhuvan Temple on S K Bole road will have a sharp curve (almost a 90°
curve) which is not feasible from geometry point of view. Considering the above point
regarding the traffic load and in-adequate availability of land / space the proposed
arrangement is not feasible.

T-GEN-01.R0
For up and down ramp on Tilak road, Dadar TT Circle and Eastern Express Highway the
DP width are 32m, 73.46m and 48.76m respectively. On Tilak road, the existing
approaches can be widened as the existing road is of 18m width footpath, therefore there
will be no problem for piers at centre & approach as it will not block / obstruct the traffic
on Tilak road. The Bridge is proposed to be 2+2 lane having total carriageway of 19.5m
(including footpath) and for up and down ramp shall be of 2 lane each having total width
of 8.0m. Alignment passing through Dadar TT Circle parallel to Dadar TT flyover will
have a sharp curve (almost a 90° curve) on both sides (up and down ramp) this will slow
down the traffic and create a traffic jam, which is not feasible from geometry point of
view.

B) Feasibility of Proposed Cable-Stay bridge parallel to the existing ROB
Matunga
Parel /
Elphinstone
Road
1) This option will provide through & through traffic on proposed bridge.
2) The proposed alignment is parallel to existing ROB on Matunga side. (refer figure above)
3) The proposed alignment at approach arrangement will be diverted and connected to
existing approaches on Eastern Express Highway (East) and Veer Kotwal Udyan Chowk
(West) of ROB.
4) In this alignment, the required vertical clearance above rail top level over railway portion
may be increase than that of existing one.
5) No. of junctions & intersections along the alignment:
TEL. : +91 22 4127 3303 / 04 / 05 • FAX : +91 22 4127 3306
T-GEN-01.R0
The proposed ROB alignment parallel to existing one will be connected to the existing
approaches on both sides of East and West of ROB so there will only one intersection
i.e., Bridge connecting to platform no.7 Dadar station (Western Line) from existing ROB.
Refer figure 4.6 and 4.8 above.
7) Geometry alignment at approaches:
As the required vertical clearance above rail top level over railway portion may increase
than that of existing one. In addition, the proposed ROB alignment will be diverted and
connected to existing approaches on both sides, therefore the gradient slope required will
be steeper than the existing one to utilize the existing approaches.
8) On Dadar TT flyover side approach, total DP width available is 32m (Fig. 4.8). The
approaches can be constructed having width approximately 14m.
9) On Matunga Side, no obstruction for construction of substructure and superstructure.
10) Existing footpath and staircase on both sides of approaches at Matunga side may be
require to dismantle at the time of execution of proposed bridge.
11) Bridge connecting to platform no.7 Dadar station (Western Line) will be closed at the
time of construction of superstructure.
TEL. : +91 22 4127 3303 / 04 / 05 • FAX : +91 22 4127 3306
T-GEN-01.R0
12) Existing OHE, signal poles and hoardings shall be shifted and / or dismantled.
13) Tree cutting shall be required on both sides of approaches at Matunga side.
14) In first phase of project, ROB of 2-Lanes parallel to existing ROB will be constructed.
After completion of execution of proposed bridge, the traffic will be diverted from
existing bridge to the proposed bridge via the existing approaches.
15) In second phase of project, after diversion of traffic to proposed bridge, the existing ROB
will dismantle and reconstructed with arrangement of 2-Lanes.
16) In this option bridge parallel to existing ROB shall not be proposed on Elphinstone Road
/ Parel side because there is no availability of DP width, it require additional land
acquisition for construction and execution of proposed bridge and it also requires
dismantle existing skywalk.

T-GEN-01.R0
C) Feasibility of Proposed Cable-Stay bridge on the same location after dismantling the
existing ROB
1) In this option, existing ROB to be dismantled & new ROB is proposed at same location.
Hence, no additional land will be required.
2) Starting and end point of proposed ROB will be same as exiting ROB.
TEL. : +91 22 4127 3303 / 04 / 05 • FAX : +91 22 4127 3306
T-GEN-01.R0
3) For this alignment, no nearby existing structures need to be dismantle. As at Kodadad
Junction side approach on Eastern Express Highway (East), total DP width available is
32m and towards Plaza side approach on Veer Kotwal Udyan Chowk (West), 27.5m DP
width is available.
Refer figure 4.6 and 4.8 above.
5) Vertical clearance of existing ROB is less than given in railway standards. Vertical
clearance need to be increased by approximately 1.0m. The gradient at approaches will
be steeper than existing ROB.
6) Existing ROB carries very dense traffic. Traffic need to be divert during construction of
ROB, need to be done during entire construction period. Traffic diversion of this road
shall be done on Elphinstone ROB, Lower Parel ROB and Matunga flyover. Elphinstone
ROB & Lower Parel ROB are approximately 2.5km away from this ROB. All the
proposed diversion are already having dense traffic situation. Considering the in-
adequate diversion of traffic proposed scheme is not feasible.
7) Bridge connecting to platform no.7 Dadar station (Western Line) will be closed at the
time of construction of superstructure.
