In a bid to raise capital for its cost-intensive infrastructure projects, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority has revived its proposal to seek relaxation in height of structures in Bandra-Kurla Complex and Wadala. Earlier, CM Devendra Fadnavis had met Civil Aviation minister for permission to construct taller buildings in these two areas, which fall within 4-km radius of the Mumbai airport.
The height restrictions are not allowing MMRDA to fully utilise the allocated floor space index (FSI) in the area. In BKC and Wadala, Fadnavis has announced an FSI of 4. “We are getting a study done by International Civil Aviation Organisation; we had approached Airport Authority of India, who approached ICAO. They will soon send the proposal,” said UPS Madan, Metropolitan Commissioner, MMRDA.
