1) Navi Mumbai Airport - New TORs are being studied. Final report to be submitted to MoE by September end. Then the MoE will announce decision within 45 days. So by mid-nov 2010 the airport decision will be final. Then public meetings happen. Then it goes to High Court. Once cleared by high court it is on track. So we are looking at another 5 years before the work begins

2) Waterways. The shipping minister has given permission to build a passenger terminal at New Ferry Wharf. The Mah govt has to now submit proposal for it.

You are correct. One thing I am not sure of:
"Then it goes to High Court. Once cleared by high court it is on track."

Why does it go to High Court, there is no PIL against it?

To assist you in choosing between pune and navi mumbai:
Navi Mumbai ranked 11th cleanest city in india.
Pune 65th
Pimpri Chinchwad 85th

DMRC suggests 6 routes for Navi Mumbai Metro
The Delhi Metro Railway Corporation (DMRC), which had been appointed to study the development of Metro network in Navi Mumbai, has suggested six routes in the satellite township. “These will connect all of Navi Mumbai, where bus services are poor at present,’’ said a senior officer.
Navi Mumbai was first connected by rail in 1993 and the tracks were extended to Panvel in 1998.
The Metro project is being executed by City Industrial and Development Corporation (Cidco) though three corridors—Vashi-Nerul-Panvel, Dighe-Turbhe-Belapur and Vashi-Ghansoli-Mahape. These are in the jurisdiction of Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation.
Bipin Mehta, additional chief engineer (railway projects), said that the DMRC had submitted its report a few days ago.
The Cidco has already approved the Belapur-Kharghar-Taloje-Kalamboli-Khandeshwar-New Panvel airport Metro, which will cost Rs 3,100 crore. But the rest were suggested later by DMRC. The Cidco has also invited suggestions and objections for the airport Metro, but no one has come up so far.
The DMRC has also suggested the 25-km Vashi-Nerul-Panvel Metro, which and will run parellel to the Palm Beach road.
“We are planning to have the Metro under Indian Tramways Act,’’ said Tanaji Satre, Cidco’s joint managing director.
Mehta said that the proposed Mumbai Transharbour Link will end at Kharkopar. The 14-km stretch of Ranjanpada-Kharkopar-Seawoods Metro will provide connectivity from here.
The other metros proposed by the DMRC are Uran-Ranjanpada-Nerul (28.3 km) and Dighe-Turbhe-Belapur (20 km).
“There may not be much traffic on Vashi-Ghansoli-Mahape area now, but it will increase in the coming years,’’ said Mehta.
Proposed Lines
Uran-Ranjanpada-Nerul:
28.3 km
Belapur-Kharghar-Taloje-Kalamboli-Khandeshwar-New Panvel Airport: 21 km Vashi-Nerul-Panvel:
25 km
Ranjanpada-Kharkopar-Seawoods: 14 km
Dighe-Turbhe-Belapur:
20 km
Vashi-Ghansoli- Mahape:
9 km
