Kopri, Thane

The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has planned several major road infrastructure projects for 2025-26 to reduce traffic congestion and improve connectivity. Key projects include an 8.25-km elevated road on the Eastern Express Highway and a new underpass to connect Kopri, Wagle Estate, and Thane. These developments aim to create a smoother and more efficient transport network for commuters.

The Thane Collector has identified 10 land parcels for slum rehabilitation under the SGN (Sanjay Gandhi Nationl park) Project, aiming to provide safe housing for slum-dwellers in areas like Kopri-Pachpakhadi, Ghodbunder Road, and Kalwa-Mumbra. The Thane district collector has identified around 290 hectares (722 acres) of land to construct tenements for the eligible slum dwellers in villages in Thane, Bhiwandi, Kalyan, Ambernath, Shahapur, and Murbad talukas.

Housing sales in Thane are projected to decline by 28% during July-September, with an estimated 14,877 units sold compared to 20,620 units in the same period last year, according to PropEquity. This decrease is part of an overall 4% decline in housing sales across the top 9 cities in India.
