The Bombay Presidency Radio Club, also known as the Radio Club, has thrown its weight behind protests against the jetty which is proposed to come up in Colaba. The jetty, which is slated to come up between the Gateway of India at one end and the Radio Club on the other, has riled Colaba locals, with many stating that the project will exacerbate an already fraught traffic situation in the South Mumbai pocket.

Locals have sent letters to political representatives stating, in a nutshell, that the jetty must not come up in the vicinity. The main concern is that the infrastructure of Colaba, especially its narrow roads leading to the Gateway area, is perennially choked, and cars and vehicles accessing the jetty will add to the bottlenecks.
