Bombay High Court has mandated comprehensive safety measures for all high-rise construction sites in Maharashtra following multiple incidents involving falling debris and construction equipment that endangered lives.

The recent fatal collapse of a building in Byculla, Mumbai, due to illegal structural extensions, serves as a harsh reminder of the city's ongoing battle with unsafe, unauthorized constructions.

The BMC's Dahisar recycling plant has processed 16,000 metric tonnes of debris into reusable materials like sand, paver blocks, and benches, fostering sustainable urban development.

With air quality worsening, Mumbai has introduced stricter rules to curb construction-related pollution. These measures aim to improve air quality and create a healthier environment for its residents.

Maharastra has highlighted concerns over 212 housing projects constructed between January and April 2023. Without necessary construction updates, these projects violate rules and have forced MahaRERA to take significant action.

The government reduced Mumbai's saltpan and mangrove slum redevelopment building area from 80% to 65%. BMC manages the remaining 35% for open space amenities. This comes seven months after the original construction ban in eco-sensitive zones.

When it comes to construction, the city of Mumbai is second to none and it is imperative that real estate agents, property developers, property investors, home buyers are updated about the construction related terms in Mumbai.
