Mumbai-Bangalore economic corridor

Location of Mumbai and Bangalore within India

The Mumbai-Bangalore economic corridor is a proposed economic corridor in India between Mumbai and Bangalore.

The preliminary work on the corridor is set to start from November 13, 2013. Indian and British governments have agreed to undertake a joint feasibility test on the project. Indian government has aimed to generate an investment over ₹300,000 crores (USD 50 billion) from this corridor and expected to create 2.5 million jobs.[1]

Mumbai-Bangalore corridor is expected to pass through different cities, Pune, Satara, Kolhapur, Belgaum, Dharwad, Davangere, Haveri, Chitradurga and Tumkur. The government has envisaged at least four new cities to boost manufacturing activity across the corridor for which the detailed plan is yet to work out.
