Introduction
Mumbai, formerly Bombay, is the capital city of the Indian state of Maharashtra is the commercial and financial capital of India. It is the most populous city in India, and the fourth most populous city in the world, with a total metropolitan area population of approximately 20.5 million. Along with the neighboring urban areas, including the cities of Navi Mumbai and Thane, it is one of the most populous urban regions in the world. Mumbai lies on the west coast of India and has a deep natural harbor. In 2009, Mumbai was named an Alpha world city. It is also the wealthiest city in India, and has the highest GDP of any city in South, West or Central Asia.
Economy
Mumbai accounts for slightly more than 6% of India's economy contributing 10% of factory employment, 30% of income tax collections, 60% of customs duty collections, 20% of central excise tax collections, 40% of foreign trade and rupees 40,000 crores (US $10 billion) in corporate taxes to the Indian economy. Headquarters of a number of Indian financial institutions such as the Bombay Stock Exchange, Reserve Bank of India, National Stock Exchange, the Mint, as well as numerous Indian companies such as the Tata Group, Essel Group and Reliance Industries are located in Mumbai.
Socio-Economic Features
During last 35 years there has been a continuing shift of population from Mumbai city District to Mumbai Suburban District and now further to part of Thane District.

Demographic Features
According to the 1991 census, the demographic features observed in Greater Mumbai are as follows: Total number of households Total Population Total Male Population Total Female Population Sex Ratio Urban Population Population density Literacy Rate Male Literacy rate Female Literacy rate : 2,051,000 : 9,926,000 : 5,460,000 : 4,466,000 : 818 : 9,926,000 : 16,461 : 82.50 % : 87.87 % : 75.80 %
Occupations
Mumbai has traditionally owed its prosperity largely to its textile mills and its seaport till the 1980s. These are now increasingly being replaced by industries employing more skilled labour such as engineering, diamond polishing, healthcare and information technology. Mumbai is also the primary financial centre for India, hosting both the major Indian stock exchanges (BSE and NSE), brokerages, asset management companies (including majority of the mutual fund companies), headquarters of most Indian state-owned and commercial banks, as well as the financial & monetary regulatory authorities of India (SEBI and RBI among other institutions). Below is a list of major industries located in Mumbai: Hindi film industry Automotive parts Utensils Biscuits (Cookies) Clothing Textile mills Pencils Tractors Pharmaceuticals Import & Export IT Health Care Mumbai and its hinterland have developed at a fast pace and contributed substantially to the both national and states economy. There is however a downturn in its economy and decline in the quality of life, owing to unplanned immigration, decline of manufacturing base, shifting of business to more competing cities, and unemployment, slums and a host of environmental and health problems. Greater Mumbai holds 12 million people with urban poor comprising around 50%, while Mumbai Metropolitan Region has a population of 19 million.

March 1977 and was completed in June, 1984. The total cost of BUTP was Rs.391.4 million including a US $ 25 million loan from the World Bank. Mumbai Urban Development Project in collaboration with SN Construction Corp .: The World Bank assisted Mumbai Urban Development Project (MUDP) was successfully implemented during 1985-94. Shifting of Wholesale Markets: With a view to reducing congestion in South Mumbai, the State Government and the MMRDA decided to shift the wholesale markets located therein. In pursuance of this policy decision, onion and potato wholesale market, the wholesale markets of sugar, spices condiments, dry fruits and Iron & Steel markets have already been shifted to Navi Mumbai. Shifting of wholesale textile markets from South Mumbai to Bandra-Kurla Complex is under consideration. Wadala Truck Terminal: The Truck Terminal currently under development by the MMRDA at Wadala, Mumbai will have for the first time a centralized facility for the transport of goods by road. Designed for a peak capacity of 3,000 trucks at a time, the truck terminal will have offices and godowns of transport companies, easy loading and unloading facilities, large parking areas for idle trucks and other related

and metro rail system and where public rapid transit system is not available or impossible to provide such system and where widening of roads is not possible due to structures on either sides, Mono Rail system is proposed to be implemented by MMRDA/GOM. Mahim Nature Park: When people come today to the MNP they find it difficult to believe that, the forest they see before their very eyes was once a city garbage dump. Today experts from around the world visit the MNP to study how so many trees could grow on a dumping ground used for decades by the Municipal Corporation of Mumbai. Mumbai Urban Transport Project: MMRDA has formulated a multi modal project viz Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP) to bring about improvement in traffic and transportation situation in the MMR with the World Bank assistance. Mumbai Urban Infrastructure Project: MMRDA initiated the process for an ambitious project known as Mumbai Urban Infrastructure Project (MUIP) with the main objective of road network improvements and efficient traffic dispersal system in Greater Mumbai. Niramal MMR Abhiyan: The Central Government has decided to eradicate the practice of open defecation. It is decided to construct about 24,000 Toilet seats at the estimated cost of approximately Rs. 250 crores in the jurisdiction of 5 Municipal corporations and 13 Municipal Councils falling in jurisdiction of Metropolitan Region. Mumbai Skywalks: MMRDA has already planned construction of 36 nos. of Skywalks in and around Mumbai Metropolitan Region. SATIS: MUTP Project Appraisal Document included 6 Station Area Traffic Improvement Scheme (SATIS) under road compound. The SATIS include improved commuter and pedestrian dispersal facilities, transport integration, parking management, intersection improvements, and traffic circulation and management in the suburban station area. The objective is to provide well planned traffic integration and dispersal system in and around suburban station area including inter model interchange. The SATIS would also address the issues
such as parking management, traffic movement around the station and general improvement to the environment. Mumbai Metro Rail Project: The Government of Maharashtra (GOM) through MMRDA, in order to improve the traffic and transportation scenario in Mumbai and to cater to the future travel needs in the next 2-3 decades has been exploring the viability of various alternative Mass Transit systems which are efficient, economically viable, environment friendly etc. In this context, a detailed feasibility study was carried out under the IndoGerman Technical Co-operation by entrusting the consultancy work to TEWET in association with DE-Consult & TCS, during 1997-2000. The study recommended a mass transit corridor from Andheri to Ghatkopar as potentially bankable and economically viable, after examining a number of alternative corridors and alignments. This study was updated by MMRDA in May 2004. In the mean time, DMRC (Delhi Metro Rail Corporation) prepared the master plan for Mumbai metro, wherein they have recommended to extend Andheri-Ghatkopar section to Versova as part of the master plan and identified as priority corridor for implementation. The GOM declared the project as public vital infrastructure project and designated MMRDA as Project Implementation Agency (PIA).

Quantity Issue: Does Mumbai have enough water? Mumbais current population is approximately 12.5 million; its water supply is 3350MLD. Domestic per capita water availability is more than 180Lpcd, excluding 25% leakage. The average hours of water supply is 1.5 to 4 hours. The per capita water availability in some of developed cities is in the range of 120-160 Lpcd. London : 150 lpcd Singapore : 160 lpcd Kuala Lumpur : 120 lpcd Paris : 150 lpcd Thus Mumbai has enough water to switch over from the present intermittent to continuous water supply provided non revenue water is reduced considerably.

The quantitative aspirations across six core areas as recommended in the McKinsey study include: Economic growth: To illustrate, real growth needs to jump from the 2.4 percent that it was between 1997-98 and 2001-02 to 8-10 percent over the next decade, thus creating more than 0.5million additional jobs. Transportation: Significant improvement is required to both mass and private transportation, it is imperative to ensure that the traveling population per rail car is kept down to 220 people and there is at least one bus for every thousand people. At present suburban rail congestion is such that during peak hours there are more than 570 people per rail car in certain sectors. For private transportation, increasing the average speed of travel, tripling the freeways/expressways and increasing the number of public parking spaces by order of magnitude is essential. Housing: Bringing down the number of people living in the slums from the current 50- 60 percent. Mumbai also needs to increase housing affordability by, for instance, bringing down housing rental costs from their current 140percent of per capita income to about 50percent. Other infrastructure (safety, environment, water, sanitation, education and healthcare) : Mumbai needs to upgrade its performance in all these area. For example, despite the healthy statistics on crime, it needs to further improve the law and order environment. Also, it must drastically reduce air pollution from the unsafe 1,000 micrograms per cubic meter (mcm) that it currently is to 50-100 mcm. Financing: Reaching one of the benchmarks would involve reducing the percentage of administrative expenditure from its current 50 to less than 25, thereby enabling increased fund availability for development and maintenance. Governance: An immense improvement is needed in governance. For instance, the time required for the key process of building approvals should be reduced from 90- 180days to less than 45 days.
Launching 8 high priorities will help in achieving Vision Mumbai In order to achieve Vision Mumbai, there is a need for expeditious implementation of eight high priority initiatives listed below. A. Boost Economic Growth to 8-10% per annum: For the past several years Mumbai has been growing on an average of 4-5% per annum, which should be increased to 8-9% in order to increase job opportunities and decrease unemployment. B. Improve and expand mass and private transport infrastructure: To improve the road network, the Mumbai Urban Infrastructure Project (MUTP) is being launched. This project will focus on building flyovers/elevated roads, road over bridges (ROBs) subways, bus corridors and new bus terminals/depots on key north-south and eastwest links. It will also focus on improving the station areas. All these projects are crucial for the improvement of Mumbais transportation network and need to be expedited. To truly solve Mumbais congestion and connectivity problem, what is needed is a) systematically developing 4-5 emerging Central Business District (CBDs) Bandra-Kurla, Andheri Kurla, Vashi/ Belapur and Dronagiri and improving their connectivity with each other and with key residential areas. This will reduce the current north south pressure to and from the Nariman Point CBD; and b) Providing end-to-end north-south and eastwest rail and road connectivity in the form of ring rails and ring freeways. All world-class cities have express ring freeways (6-8 lane roads with no signals) around the city such that a freeway can be accessed from any point in the city in less than ten minutes.

C. Increase Housing Availability: The current Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) initiatives will create a supply of less than 150,000 units over the next ten years, leaving huge shortfall of 950,000 low-income housing units over the next decade, which will result in a further increase in slums. Increase land availability by 50-70 percent by increasing FSI; rescind the Urban Land ceiling Act (ULCA) which today results in unclear land titles, effectively phase out the Rent Control Act, relax CRZ II & CRZ III and create low-income houses to rehabilitate existing slum-dwellers by redesigning the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) process. Although investment trend has increased considerably after JNNURM, but implementation has not kept pace with the required development due to the time consumed in multiple clearance processes, and thus a single window clearance is the need of the hour.
D. Upgrade other Infrastructure: E. Raise adequate financing F. Generate momentum through Quick wins: G. Enable Implementation through PPP:
Boost Economic Growth to 8-10% per annum Make governance more effective, efficient & responsive Expand Mass & Private transport infrastructure
Upgrade Other Infrastructure Generate Momentum through Quick Wins Enable implementation through PPP
