East [[Mumbai]] consists the localities of [[Bhandup]], [[Ghatkopar]], [[Kanjurmarg]], [[Kurla]], [[Mulund]], [[Nahur]], [[Powai]], [[Vidyavihar]] and [[Vikhroli]]. To the south-east lie the neighborhoods of [[Chembur]], [[Govandi]], [[Mankhurd]], [[Trombay]] and [[Wadala]].

==Division==
The city of Mumbai lies on Salsette Island. The long thinner protruding landmass just across the [[Mithi river]] is the oldest part of the city. This region is called [[South Mumbai]]. The area just north of Mithi river is called West [[Mumbai]] and the area that lies to the east of the airport is called East Mumbai. North Mumbai is further upwards just across the [[JVLR]] which is primarily a residential part of the city

==Transport==

===Rail===
East [[Mumbai]] is served by the [[Central Line (Mumbai Suburban Railway)|Central Line]]. With the exception of Powai, each of the neighborhoods has a railway station. Kurla is an interchange point for the [[Harbour Line (Mumbai Suburban Railway)|Harbour Line]].

===Road===
The [[Eastern Express Highway]] (EEH) is a major road the runs along the border of East [[Mumbai]].

[[Lal Bahadur Shastri Marg]] (LBS Marg) is a 21 km long, major arterial road in the East [[Mumbai]]. LBS Marg connects the neighbouring city of [[Thane]] with the neighbourhood of [[Sion, Mumbai|Sion]] in Mumbai.

However, connectivity from the Western part of the city is poor. The Andheri-Ghatkopar Link Road, [[Jogeshwari - Vikhroli Link Road]] (JVLR) and the Andheri-Kurla Road are the major road links between the Eastern and Western neighbourhoods.
[[Santa Cruz – Chembur Link Road]] (SCLR) which was completed in April 2014 links Santa Cruz to Chembur.

Bus services are provided by [[Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport]] (BEST). There are bus depots at Ghatkopar, Mulund and Vikhroli.
