P D'Mello Road is a 6 km long arterial north–south access road in Mumbai.[1][2][3] P D'Mello Road is the name of the 6 km stretch between the south-end of the Eastern Freeway and the north-end of the Colaba Causeway.[1] The road comes under Mumbai's B Ward.[4]
On 23 January 2006, The Times of India reported that the State Government had decided to concretise, widen and remove slums from P D'Mello Road, as part of ongoing road improvements in Mumbai.[8]
The BMC began clearing slums in May 2007.[1] The road was widened and the footpath was made narrower in an effort to keep the shanties from being rebuilt. The total cost for the widening was estimated to be ₹51 crore (US$6.4 million).[9]
