Recently, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) chief Praveen Pardeshi asked the ward officers to shortlist places and roads where there can be dedicated cycle tracks. Majorly these places will be near railway and Metro stations.
The BMC is further planning to construct a track under the Metro-1 corridor. Talking about the same Praveen Pardeshi stated that the idea is to not only promote a clean energy commute but to increase connectivity between homes and railway stations, bus stops and Metro stations.
Some roads and footpaths which had been declared as 'no-parking zone' will be used as a cycling track. Further, the tracks will have an entry and exit points at traffic signals and a track is all set to be built between Versova and Azad Nagar Metro station as a part of the t project.
