Project for pedestrians at Colaba 40% complete, to be ready by December

A pedestrian-friendly walking infrastructure that is coming up at Colaba is 40 per cent complete with former corporator from the area, Makarand Narwekar, stating that the phase-I stretch between Mantralaya to Badhwar Park is slated to be ready by December 2025. Pegged at an estimated cost of Rs 5 crore, the project by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) seeks to uplift the pedestrian infrastructure along 210 metres between Deepak Jog Chowk near Mantralaya and Bhai Bhandarkar Chowk, near Badhwar Park. The civic body is developing stamped concrete footpaths, vibrant 3D street art as well as a multi-utility corridor for landscaping works along the earmarked lanes as part of the project, funded by the district planning and development committee as well as the tourism department. Ashoka trees and ornamental plants will be planted on the stretch while beautifying the boundary wall at Badhwar Park. According to officials, the first phase of the project was decided owing to its proximity to Machimaar Nagar — one of the oldest fishing villages of the city. Following completion of phase I, the BMC is eyeing to ultimately extend the project until Cuffe Parade. On Sunday, Makarand Narwekar, former BJP corporator from Colaba, said work on the project is nearly 40 per cent complete and slated to be executed entirely by year end. 'With wider footpaths, dedicated green corridors, improved lighting, and organised pedestrian zones, this project will greatly enhance the walking experience in the area for everyone,' said Narwekar.

Collector told to investigate complaint on parking fees at Civil Station

Kochi: State human rights commission (SHRC) chairperson Justice Alexander Thomas said Ernakulam collector should investigate the complaint that parking fees are being unfairly collected from vehicles entering collectorate and make a decision within two months. The order states that complainant should submit the complaint and remedies to the collector. He should form a committee comprising sub-collectors and officials to examine the complaint. Committee should conduct a proper investigation after hearing the complainant and submit an objective report to collector. Commission also asked collector to make an appropriate decision in this regard without delay. Report submitted to SHRC by collector says that parking fee is being charged to ensure security of Civil Station. Parking fee is charged for vehicles staying in the compound for more than an hour. From the amount collected as parking fee, Rs 1,500 is being paid to govt every month. However, the complainant, civil activist Raju Vazhakkala, informed the commission that a fee is charged as soon as the vehicle is parked. Commission stated in its order that since charging fees is a policy decision, it cannot be said to be illegal.
