The state government has given approval for a bicycle track in Mumbai, Maharshtra, as part of the project proposed by the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM).
The Rs 300 crore project, to be completed in 18 months, is likely to provide the shortest route and connectivity between North-South and East-West Mumbai.
The cycle and joggers’ track will be developed along water pipelines that stretch across 39 to 46 km in the city.
The project will have 40 entry and exit points and connect 19 railway stations, seven metro stations and four monorail stations.
The 39 km Tansa water pipeline stretches between Mulund and Dharavi, and Ghatkopar and Sion.
The pipeline passes through Mulund, Sahar, Vakola, Bhandup, Hussein Hill, Mahim, Khar East, Ghatkopar, Dharavi, Anda depot and Kurla East.
