Reliance Infrastructure has bagged EPC contracts from Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), for the Rs. 7,000 crore Versova-Bandra Sea Link Project (VBSL) in Mumbai.
Reliance Infrastructure is fully geared to deliver the project in 60 months from the Appointed Date of June 24, 2019 as per the contract.
VBSL is a marquee project with a length of 17.17 km, which is three times the length of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link of 5.6 km.

Speaking on the occasion, ED and CEO, Reliance Infrastructure, Punit Garg, said, "This project will further propel Reliance Infrastructure as a premier E&C company in India. Our partnership with Astaldi S.p.A, the third biggest construction player in the world in bridges, will help us create a truly world class mega infrastructure project for Mumbai.”
