BMC to beautify spaces below six flyovers for Rs 14 crore
Inspired by garden and community spaces developed under flyovers in South Mumbai, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) will kick start a similar project named ‘Redefining spaces under flyover’ in the suburbs.
BMC has floated a Rs 14-crore tender to develop recreational spaces below six flyovers in the eastern and western suburbs of Mumbai.
As per the plan, these areas, which currently are either dump yards or encroached spaces, are likely to get badminton courts, walking and cycling tracks among others.
The civic body has zeroed down on six flyovers— Sudhir Phadke and Gen. Karriappa flyovers in Borivali, Veer Savarkar flyover in Goregaon, Captian Gore flyover in Vile Parle, Milan Railway Over Bridge (ROB) in Santacruz and largest space under the flyover along the Ghatkopar Mankhurd Link Road (GMLR).
