Dr. Karir further said that the coastal road will definitely save Mumbaikars travel time, fuel, etc. The quality of any city is determined by the open spaces and amenities available to its citizens. Considering this criterion, Kanari Rasta is going to give Mumbai a new identity and beauty as well. The route will have open spaces for citizens, decks, gardens, cycle tracks and it will create a distinct identity.

After the inauguration of the exhibition, a video showing the concept of the coastal route as well as the current progress was shown. On this occasion Additional Municipal Commissioner Bhide briefed the chief guests about the coastal route development.

NCPA Chairman K. N. Santook appealed to Mumbaikars to come along with their families, friends and colleagues and experience the picture of a fast and progressive Mumbai.
