The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Sunday announced a series of 320 new civic projects as part of the second phase of BMC’s ambitious Mumbai Beautification Project, which was announced by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde last year.
The new series of works include concretisation of Mumbai roads, new sewage treatment plants, upgrading and modernising public toilets and strengthening the infrastructure of the city’s municipal schools. Civic sources said that the overall cost of these projects is estimated at Rs 110 crore.
On Sunday, a bhoomi-poojan (groundbreaking) ceremony for all the projects was performed by CM Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at Chembur’s Lokmanya Tilak ground.
