Tenders for Mumbai Port Trust land development project consultant in 10 days

Ports & Shipping: Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT) chairman Sanjay Bhatia, on Monday, said a global tender will be floated in 10 days to appoint a project management and implementation consultant, who will create a master-plan for the proposed port-land development at the country’s oldest harbour. Creating basic infrastructure will take two to four years, he said, adding the final action plan will draw from the numerous committee reports which have been presented till now by a slew of stakeholders, including citizen groups, industry lobbies, etc. “Till now, the plans that have been made are general. We do not have a detailed master-plan enlisting where to build a road, a marina or a restaurant. I need to appoint a consultant for that,” Bhatia, who took over as the chairman recently, said.
