Kalamboli is one of the nodes of Navi Mumbai. It is a transportation hub, being situated at the junction of the Sion-Panvel Highway, NH 48, Panvel By-Pass, NH 66 and Mumbai-Pune Expressway and is among the biggest iron and steel delivery centers in India. The township, like the rest of Navi Mumbai, is divided into sectors, which are further divided into plots. The residential and commercial areas of Kalamboli are divided by the NH 4 highway. Roadpali, a region to the north of Kalamboli, is developing at a faster rate than the latter with many residential projects coming up due to availability of land. Roadpali is located along the Taloja Link Road. Kalamboli also houses the Navi Mumbai Police Headquarters. CIDCO is the nodal administrative body for Kalamboli node. Kalamboli also has a Sewage Water Treatment Plant owned by CIDCO. Kalamboli is now governed by Panvel Municipal Corporation (PMC).[3] The terminal of Mumbai-Pune Expressway is at Kalamboli. It also has Navi Mumbai's largest marble market alongside the Sion Panvel Highway.Place is a complete mess made by builders, politicians and officials.Dusty, noisy scenes and no development amidst growing real estate.There is a "Dharawe lake"
in Sector 9 Kalamboli which accumulates used water and the officials do not respond even after co.plai ts made by locals.
The place is crowded with tall buildings and the real estate has soared up by the grace of politicians and builders.As politicians have always ignored this place, top industrialists and corporate offices(JNPT, Reliance Industries, Aplo hospitals, ONGC) should jointly with the local authorities work to bring up this node as joint socio_corporate responsibility.Such adoption of localities by the corporate world is a new form of patriotism.Let God give them this insight.The common man is at the receiving end.
Roadways
Auto-rickshaw, along with NMMT, BEST, KDMT, MSRTC buses, are the local means for commuters. Auto rickshaws provide the primary means of personal local transportation. Traveling to other nodes, or travels at night, by auto rickshaw usually entails the payment of one-and-a-half times the regular meter fare, or some other negotiated fare. NMMT, BEST and ST buses are available from Kalamboli to Vashi, Ghatkopar, Uran and Thane, as well as the node of Panvel.
