CIDCO Sets the Stage for a Major Infrastructure Leap

In a bold stride towards revolutionizing urban connectivity in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), CIDCO (City and Industrial Development Corporation) has floated a Notice Inviting Proposal (NIP) for Peer Review of the Detailed Project Report (DPR) and Transaction Advisory Services for the much-anticipated Metro Line 8 (CSMIA to NMIA).

Proposed to be implemented under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, this move opens the doors for top consultancy firms to be part of a transformative infrastructure project that will redefine air-to-airport metro connectivity in India.
