Connectivity
The area boasts of excellent internal and external connectivity. It is located on the busy Western Express Highway, which becomes the NH8 (Mumbai-Ahmedabad) outside Mumbai city limits. There are two approaches from the highway: one at the Mahindra & Mahindra junction, and the other at Magathane Telephone Exchange. Both approaches have flyovers / underpass which makes entry and exit into / from the area very easy.
It is equidistant from Kandivali and Borivali railway stations which fall on the Western Railway's suburban section. Almost all outstation trains on the Western Railway halt at Borivali.
The domestic and international airports can also be reached quickly due to the proximity to the highway. Mumbai-Pune Shivneri Volvo buses operated by MSRTC can also be boarded from the Sukurwadi or Nancy Colony bus depots which are nearby.
The area is well serviced by the public transport buses operated by BEST. Route 287 connects the area to Kandivali station and routes 209 and 703 to Borivali station. Route 223 is a fairly long-distance route that runs along the Link Road and connects to the business hub of Mindspace and the Bollywood hub of Andheri Lokhandwala.
Air-conditioned buses operated by BEST and NMMT provide direct connectivity to the business districts like NKP (Nirlon Knowledge Park, Goregaon), SEEPZ, Hiranandani (Powai), BKC (Bandra Kurla Complex), Worli, Cuffe Parade, Backbay, MBP (Millennium Business Park, Airoli) and CBD Belapur.
Internally, there is a 120-foot wide cement-concrete (CC) road which acts as the traffic backbone of the area. Besides this, the area is well serviced by a network of inter-connected roads, cross-roads and lanes.
